A little bit about me

I am a happy mother of five! As I raised my children I provided childcare in my home and then as my youngest became of age to be more independent I have been doing nannying for families in their homes. I enjoy all ages and my fascination for child development allows me to love what I do every day. I’m very easy-going so becoming a third set of hands to help in the daily routine of the family comes naturally to me .I enjoy being outside and love sharing my love of nature with every age child.I find teaching through play and sharing my joy in the day very rewarding .I’m lovingly referred to as the baby whisperer because my demeanor is calm .I feel honored as I get welcomed in to a home to become a pivotal part of a child’s day and certainly go about it as I would care for my own family with respect for each family’s individual values

"Nancy is…how do I put this?…the best nanny in the world. Hyperbole is the only option here. She has this calm, magical energy that makes everything feel easier and better for the whole family. She’s one of those rare souls for whom nannying is not a job, but a calling. She cares about our kids in the absolute deepest sense. The way a blood relative would. She’s patient, meticulous, encouraging, intuitive. She somehow magically (again with the magic!) tows the line between holding our kids to a high standard of behavior and development while also providing endless compassion and loving support. I truly believe that my son in particular would not be the confident, kind, attentive boy he is without her. She brings out the best in my kids, and in us as parents too, as she generously shares her incredible knowledge (and wisdom!) with us. I could write a whole dissertation about her but, instead I’ll leave it at this: to us, she’s not a nanny. She’s family."

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

Since my childcare profession coincided with my own children’s early years, it evolved very naturally to be able to love other people‘s children at the same time as respecting each parents individual choices of parenting styles. I believe childcare requires a perfect match because it’s not something that you can provide sincerely if your not feeling genuine. The care ranges from having a child from morning till night as parents commute to work from home parents, to children that are at school and then need to be going to many activities.. families vary.Age range has been 0-15 . I’ve commuted up to an hour, provided plenty if flexibility & reliability.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love sharing my awe and appreciation of the simple parts of the day especially outside.Having a child grow to feel safe and comfortable with me is wonderful (and give peace to parents.)Of course daily fun like crafts,games,chatting in the car on the way to school are also important to me.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Providing a safe & peaceful day to nurture each child to be a wonderful person

My experience with special needs children...

Through the years of my childcare profession, I have experienced a small gambit of special circumstances from pica, OCD, ADHD, severe& rare genetic conditions, down syndrome

The most important part about being a nanny...

Of course the obvious one is soothing a baby or a boo boo ,building confidence, cheering up after a tuff day . One of my favorites was a little boy i had since 2 months would introduce me as “ my Nancy”
Another favorite was my first experience with Down syndrome was a sweet 12 yr old girl and I put some observations together to suggest some ideas to help her with family time, 4 kids total and they worked wonders.Another touching moment was as my teens aged out they opted to come to me rather then go home after school.Getting to share with a parent what we had learned that day is awesome.

Kimberly L. - Seeking Work in Brevard

Babysitter Available in Brevard, NC: Kimberly L.

I have had the pleasure of being surrounded by children most of my life and truly enjoy spending time with them. It began caring for children both personally and professionally, including working as an au pair in Europe. Children naturally connect with me, which I believe comes from my ability to truly see and engage with them.

After a long career in the corporate world, including many years with Polo Ralph Lauren, I went back to school for four years to become a certified healing practitioner and also offer home and business transformation services.

I recently relocated after living in a home with children and have found myself missing that daily connection. A close friend encouraged me to offer childcare locally, saying that “no one is better with kids.”

I would be honored to support families seeking a reliable, caring, and attentive caregiver. I bring patience, maturity, fun, and a grounded presence, along with a genuine love for helping children feel seen and suppored.
