A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Heather, a 26-year-old professional nanny based in Charlotte, NC, with several years of full-time experience caring for children of all ages, including multiples and children with special needs.
I’m CPR certified, Basic Life Support trained (renewal soon), and SIDS certified. I also have hands-on experience supporting children with seizure disorders, severe allergies, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and other unique developmental or medical needs. Safety, patience, and individualized care are always my top priorities.
Families who’ve worked with me describe me as nurturing, reliable, and calm under pressure. I love creating engaging, age-appropriate activities, maintaining healthy routines, and fostering a warm environment where children feel safe, understood, and happy.
Whether it’s helping with daily structure, handling emergency situations with confidence, or simply being a consistent, loving presence. I take pride in giving families peace of mind and helping kids thrive.

"Heather was our full time nanny from July 2023 to August 2024 (ages 5-17 months), but we still regularly use her as a baby sitter for our daughter. Our daughter got into daycare at 15 months, and that’s the only reason we stopped using her full time. Heather is responsible, organized, kind and our daughter LOVES her. Could not recommend her enough!"

"Heather is a very patient and loving person, that’s one thing that we loved about her. She always had cool, adventurous ideas to do with the kids. She was also very responsible and we are going to hate to lose her! You would be very lucky to have her as your nanny."

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is being a safe, steady space; not just for the children, but for the parents as well. Children thrive when they feel secure, understood, and unconditionally supported, and I take pride in being that calm, loving presence they can count on no matter where we are in the world. At the same time, I know how much trust it takes for parents to leave their children in someone else’s care. I work hard to build open, respectful relationships with the whole family, so everyone feels confident, comfortable, and cared for.

My experience with special needs children...

I am an experienced travel nanny skilled in caring for children with a variety of special needs, including ADHD, autism, diabetes, seizures, severe allergies and G-tube feeding. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, managing medications, and providing compassionate, individualized support in any environment—whether at home or on the road. Calm, organized, and adaptable, I’m dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing space where every child can thrive, even while traveling internationally or on short-term assignments.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny was during a playful morning routine when one of the parents was going through all the animal sounds with their toddler, “What does the cow say? What does the dog say?” The child answered each one with giggles and confidence. Then the parent asked, “What does Miss Heather say?” and without hesitation, completely unprompted, she looked up and said, “I love you.” It was such a pure and unexpected moment that reminded me how deeply connected and safe children feel when they’re truly loved and cared for.
