Hello family.
May I be of exceptional assistance to all your nanny needs while easing your heart & mind?
Yes! I’ll tell you why.
I have the highest level of standards for the care and service I provide for you.
I thoroughly focus my full attention on the growth and development of each individual child through each stage. While motivating them in a fun and peaceful learning environment. I utilize the Waldorf method along with the Montessori teaching techniques.
I am fun loving and supportive in every aspect.
I have excellent communication skills and am a mature woman of integrity.
I have a lot of energy and enjoy spending this loving energy playing and teaching children outdoors. By way of dance, singing, arts, crafts, yoga, and all types of activities. I go with the flow of the family and their individual needs and desires. Let’s play, read books and learn something new together. Many Thanks,
Rachel

"Brittany was such a joy to have around and is genuinely a forever member of our family! She came on board shortly after I birthed my second child and stayed until after my fourth! She is everything we were looking for in a nanny! She was responsible and discreet, she had the foresight to know when certain things were necessary and she completed each task efficiently! our kids were so sad to see her go and still have a weekly phone call with her to as a coping mechanism since she left! Shes just great!"

"Senna, who was a fantastic nanny for our child, Penny. Senna was incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive, always ensuring Penny was safe, engaged, and happy.
From the start, Senna formed a wonderful bond with Penny, showing patience, warmth, and creativity in their daily activities. Whether it was organizing fun and educational playtime, preparing meals, or handling bedtime routines, Senna approached every task with responsibility and kindness. We always felt at ease knowing Penny was in such capable hands.
Senna is not only a great caregiver but also a genuinely thoughtful and trustworthy person. We highly recommend Senna to any family looking for a nurturing and dependable nanny."

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Theresa and I am 51 years old. My husband of 25 years and myself raised our four adult kids , who now have their own family's that they are raising and in total they gave us twelve unique , special grandkids.
I met and started helping at the time a family of three and stayed with them until April 2024 . Helping with all three of their kids from birth so the parents could work and not have to worry about the Littles.
I DOORDASH for extra money and Thursday through Sunday are my busy days. Monday through Wednesday I've got an open time availability. Which is all flexible. I would prefer to meet the right family and slowly get to know prior to any long term commitment and if all goes well with a full schedule I'd rather not have to do DOORDASH.
I need one paid days to shadow parent , get to know family , learn routine, and take notes myself so their is no mistakes as to what is
expected where things goes and how it works.
Preferable security cameras set up

"I have had Drea around for years, she has become part of the family. Shes so sweet and helpful, definitely beyond the “nanny” role. She really cares about children and only wants to help out the most she can. She’s very sweet but also knows how to keep the kids in line- I’ve never felt unsure or hesitant having her around my kids. She’s amazing."
