A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Rachel and I have been a full time nanny for over 6 years. I am a licensed Speech Pathologist Assistant and worked part time at a middle school during this school year as well as nannying a 7 month old baby. Before that, I was a full time nanny for a family with 4 children. I started when the twins were newborns and the oldest were 2 and 4. Before that, I was a full time nanny in Boston for a family with 2 children and I was a part of a nanny share and also cared for 2 more children. All between the ages of 2 and 5. I have experience being an Elementary School Art Teacher and Kindergarten Assistant Teacher as well. I am doula/postpartum doula certified and I have my Bachelors Degree in Speech Pathology and Studio Arts. I love being outdoors, swimming, hiking and painting. I would love to meet you and your family!
