"Farah started as our date night sitter but when we had another child, she became out full time nanny. She took care of our 4 children (9, 6, 4, and newborn). She’s very hands-on with my kids. She walked them to school, made snacks, pack their lunches, pick them up from school, play with them, take them to the park, do chores with them, and kept them entertained. She made sure that all of them get plenty of time outside to play, read lots of books to the little once, and made sure that the kids are sharing, taking turns, and behaving. Farah is very patient, creative, caring, loving, respectful, resourceful, always thinking outside the box, and very attentive. We love her."

A little bit about me

I have extensive hands-on childcare experience from both personal and professional settings. Growing up, I regularly cared for my younger siblings as well as my nieces and nephews, managing daily routines, meals, and activities. Professionally, I worked as a nanny for several years, where I was responsible for creating a safe, engaging, and structured environment for children of various ages. In addition, my background in an educational role working with elementary and middle school students has strengthened my ability to support children’s learning, behavior, and development. I bring a patient, responsible, and nurturing approach to childcare.
