A little bit about me
Hi, I'm Eve! I've been care-taking for 20+ years total, and I absolutely love it. Forming a trusting partnership with the families I work for is incredibly important to me. My favorite activities to do with all ages are dance parties and spending as much time outside as possible. I am totally self sufficient in my work and enjoy planning activities, making toys and crafts, playing on the floor, and fully immersing myself in caring for little (and big) people. I am well trained in caring for children of all need levels and ages. I specialize in infants and toddlers under the age of 3. I am the oldest of five and have been working with children since I was nine years old.
I'd love to hear about your family's needs and wants and see if we are a good fit!

Nanny Allison
"Allison was my assistant child care worker in a church nursery. The ages of the children ranged from infant to 10 years. Allison was wonderful with the children, as well as with the parents and church staff. She was well liked by all. She has vast experience including this neighborhood church nursery and an inner city therapeutic preschool. She has a sweet and calm demeanor with a great attitude."

Nanny Avery
"Avery was wonderful with our newborn, 2, and 4 year olds. She was very helpful around the house and very reliable and trustworthy. We went on vacation with her twice and she made traveling with the kids so easy, especially with our newborn. We relocated so we had to lose her but we miss her everyday!!"

They loved her and would ask for her all the time. She is engaging, fun, trustworthy, caring and a pleasure to have in our home. We were so sad when we had to say goodbye. Really can’t recommend her enough!!!"
