Nanny Kalyani

9 years experience

A little bit about me

I'm Kalyani, an experienced nanny from here on the Cape! For over three years, I hosted a successful nanny share at my previous home in Providence, RI also babysitting for many families throughout the state. Recently, I moved home to complete my Early Childhood Education degree and Child Development Associate Credential. Since graduating, I've eagerly returned to full-time nannying. I am committed to providing top quality care coming prepared to teach, be active, involved, and engaged with the children of whom I have the pleasure of caring for! My caregiving and curriculum style is geared toward fostering independence and confidence among children, helping them develop a variety of skillsets and creative abilities. I go above and beyond to meet each child where they are by providing memorable experiences that cater to each families’ individual needs, personalities, and evolving preferences to learn as their child grows.
I’d love to be of service! Thank you so much for your time!✨

"We are professional musicians who travel to different cities for work and often need to find temporary childcare, which can be very difficult. Kalyani cared for our children ages 4 and 6 several times when we were traveling and she is the best childcare provider we have ever found for out-of-town care. She had immense knowledge of early childhood practices, and brought activities, a sense of fun, and a great deal of patience and kindness, both for us and for our children. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a childcare provider!"

"Vicki was an outstanding caregiver for my family for over a year. She was incredibly responsible, caring, thoughtful and loving during her time with my children. She was always on-time and never left any doubt regarding my children's safety or well being. My son (3yo) and daughter (1yo) learned and grew so much during their time with Vicki and they would consider her the most special person in their lives. I cannot express the admiration my family has for Vicki and any child/family is lucky to know her."
