A little bit about me

Hi there! I’m Hailey - a caring, organized, and creative nanny with a heart for little ones and years of hands-on experience. I grew up in upstate New York, where I nannied full-time for a doctor and a chef, caring for their two young boys almost every day. From cooking and cleaning to story time and spontaneous adventures, I was part of their family up until I went to college.
I’ve cared for kids of all ages through my college years but I especially love working with toddlers and preschoolers. I’ve also worked as a YMCA counselor watching a group of 5-10 children ranging in ages from 3-5. I’m fluent in German, love the cook and craft, always keep things tidy and structured - with lots of heart in everything I do.
My husband and I are currently in North Carolina, but I’m hoping to relocate to Boston and would happily move for the right family fit. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a match!
