A little bit about me

I have been a career nanny for 31 years. Children are my passion and have been since I was a child myself. I started babysitting at age 12, worked in day care starting at age 16 while participating in my high schools ECD Co-op program. In 1995 when I became a mother, I made the move to being a private nanny. I have 6 children of my own and 8 grandchildren (so far!).
I have a year and a half of nursing school as well. I love the outdoors: hiking, biking, swimming and anything to do with the arts. I enjoy painting, singing and acting in community theater in my free time as well as going to concerts and the ballet. I am extremely patient and warm, I have great communication skills and work in tandem with the parents in all aspects of the children's care. I am flexible, dependable and overtly punctual.

"Jenie was very hands on and active with the children. She quickly became an important extension of our family,. She took the kids to and from school, tutored them, took them on field trips during school holidays and on occasion even filled in for doctor visits when I was unable to take off of work. In addition to meeting the kids' needs she assisted with keeping the kids' areas clean and at times would get dinner started due to my erratic work schedule."

A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Sara.
I’m a special needs mom, a Mental Health First Aid responder, a CPR-certified, DBT- and RBT-trained childcare professional with over 20 years of experience — and the kind of person who will love your child like my own while knowing exactly how to support them.
I’ve raised a gifted child with autism and ADHD successfully who is thriving, as an honors student on the deans list and away at college double science majoring to preparing to become a veterinarian. I believe the success of my own child speaks for my experience. I’ve assisted in navigating IEPs, managed dietary sensitivities, and built enriching programs for hundreds of kids ages 2–12 in both faith based and educational settings. I show up with patience, training, and heart — every single time.
I’d love to meet your family.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Erika. I’m very passionate about working with children and creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where they can learn and grow. Health and wellness are also important to me, and I love encouraging active, balanced lifestyles for kids through outdoor play and engaging activities.

"Kayla has such a kind heart, and is very intentional in all that she does. She makes every child that she works with feel seen, loved and appreciated. Kayla naturally has children gravitate toward her because of how much of a sweet spirit she has. I have been an educator as long as this incredible young woman has been alive, and I have never seen someone who can walk into a room. And every child be so excited to just have the potential of saying hello to them. Kayla is a gem. Please feel free to email me at rose5alysse@gmail.com"
