Nanny shares, the best of both worlds

The Sylvester Family
We chose a nanny share because it allowed us to make sure that our child was getting great, individual attention from a person that we could trust while helping us to manage costs. We couldn't afford to have one nanny, and found another family that was in a similar situation and shared our values.

A little bit about me

Hello,
I'm a recent college graduate who is planning on attending Columbia University for my masters in School Psychology in the fall. I have over five years of experience working with children both as a nanny and running summer camps. I like to spend time outside, read, and do crafts.
I believe in working to make children feel safe while also ensuring they have fun and try new things. As a nanny I'm committed to creating a space for children to learn new skills and have engaging experiences. I have experience working with a large range of ages but am most versed in children aged 3-10.

A little bit about me

I'm a single mom of 7 kids ages 27 - 13. 🥰 Im 44 years old and love children, and they always seem to live me too. ❤️ Maybe because im not afraid to act silly just make them laugh. Who knows 🤷‍♀️🤣 I've been a caregiver and child care worker for almost my whole life. I cook, I clean, and I don't mind getting a little messy to have fun.

A little bit about me

blending cultural immersion with comprehensive care, I have excelled in roles working as an addition to a family home. By enhancing family support and helping to develop multifaceted skill development, I've found great happiness in my career.
My approach has been emotional intelligence, calming environments, and child-led activities. I have found it has significantly improved children's independence, social interaction, and physical skills while providing the family with a reliable and consistent home environment.
Dedicated and experienced in multitasking and working under pressure, I have often organized home life and special events.
