"Heather watched my middle child 5 days a week till he was old enough for school. Starting out about age one. She provided care in a very loving nurturing environment. There were songs and crafts and planned activities. He was feed 2 good meals per day. He had lots of hugs whenever he needed them. She was a second mom to him. My oldest son would be in care over the summer. They were outside on nice days playing games with other children in the yard. She always teaches children age appropriate skills like taking turns and saying please and thank you. Even the tough things like potty training. She makes a connection with children that carries on for years. You can trust that she will put the needs of children first and they will be well cared for."

A little bit about me

I am a 23 year old mother of a beautiful 2 year old baby boy. Seeking desperately for employment, to be able to provide for my family. Unfortunately I can't do just any job as I don't have care for my child anymore so I need a job where I can bring my son with me. I have an entirely clean record willing to provide my background paperwork. Almost perfect driving record except one car accident from two years ago. I have always been really good with kids. Funny enough my mom always told me she saw me getting into working with kids when I got older. I am very by the book, so I can promise every detail presented to me will be followed to the letter, my most recent job was lifeguarding. Per that position I have obtained CPR certification and first aid certification

A little bit about me

I’m a caring, patient, and reliable caregiver who genuinely loves working with kids. I believe children learn best when they feel safe, supported, and encouraged — and I do my best to create a calm, loving environment where they can grow, explore, and be themselves.

Along with my childcare experience, I’m also a mom of 2 — a 6-year-old and a 5-month-old. Being a mom has given me firsthand experience with everything from newborn routines and sleepless nights to school schedules, tantrums, milestones, and all the little moments in between.

I have experience with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids, and I’m comfortable with bottles, feedings, naps, playtime, homework help, and bedtime routines. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping and simple meals related to the kids.

My priorities as a nanny are:
• Safety first
• Gentle, respectful guidance
• Learning through play
• Open communication with parents

I’d love to get to know your family and see if we’re a great fit.
