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

As a dedicated and caring nanny with over 15+ years of experience, I take great pride in creating a nurturing and supportive environment for children to grow, learn, and thrive. My approach is built on trust, patience, and understanding, ensuring that every child feels valued and heard. I believe in fostering creativity, promoting emotional growth, and making every moment spent together an opportunity for joy and discovery. With a strong commitment to providing both fun and structure, I strive to be a positive role model and a source of comfort, always focused on the well-being of the little ones in my care. I also have wonderful references from my previous jobs, which reflect my dedication and the positive impact I’ve had on the families I’ve worked with.

"I truly couldn’t recommend Jessica more. I trust her with my daughter’s life. She really is the best in every way. She is so loving and caring towards my daughter. She takes excellent care of her. She is reliable and is on time every day. She reads about the developmental stages that my daughter is in and does developmentally appropriate things with her. She is fun and has my daughter laughing all day long. She also truly has safety on her mind with every interaction with my child. I know that with Jessica my daughter is safe and well cared for. There aren’t adequate words to describe how wonderful Jessica is! Any family would be beyond lucky to have her taking care of their child!"

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Barbara. I am told that I’m easy going, fun, happy, reliable and loving. My first language is Italian and I am also fluent in English, French, Spanish, German and Swiss German. I'm a Christian, I was made in Italy but grew up in Switzerland. I sang and danced for 20 years, played the flute for five years and travelled to more than 30 countries. I had a very happy and safe childhood. I love children and adults.

Professionally I used to be a travel agent in Switzerland and server in upscale restaurants in Manhattan, NY and Los Angeles, CA.

I used to take care of both my grandmother and my baby cousin for 5 years and other children age 6 to 12 years old in Switzerland and in New York.

"Barbara is a friendly neighbor. Her gentle and caring personality makes me feel that my children are safe when she is with them. She is reliable with scheduling and has proved to be quickly responsive in communication with me. My Mama's boy Son, didn't even cry (he does with Dad) when Mama left and Barbara took over his care! My oldest said she made her feel happy & was attentive as well as engaged in their play. Looking forward to her watching them again, for future date nights."
