A little bit about me

My name is Rachel, but kids usually call me Rayray. I have a masters in data science, specifically GIS and I used to work in client management and sales, but I am a more satisfied and happy person spending time with babies and small children. I am patient and silly and have mastered the art of playing the fool in a way kids really love. I love being outside, I love books, I continue to learn throughout adulthood. I am kind and empathetic towards others.

The first infant I looked after was my nephew. I spent 18 mos with him and during that time my brother in law began recommending me to other faculty at UM. In the 6 years since, I have primarily worked for UM faculty. I have a unique understanding of their needs. I have worked unusual weekend hours with infants while mom or dad travels for a conference. I have traveled with a family on sabbatical taking the kid for adventures every day. It’s important you know I have been a responsible adult for more than half my life.

More About Me

The most important part about being a nanny...

Giving parents peace of mind that their child is getting important, undivided attention, and having their needs met while they get done what they need to do. With regard to kids it’s important to have fun. It gives me so much joy to make a kid laugh.
