A little bit about me
I have been a childcare professional for 15+ years for all kinds of children from infants to families of five. My love for taking care of others and lightening their load motivates my work. I consider myself a sunny and generous person and it is my goal to make a profound positive impact on the lives of the families I care for. I aim to become an intuitive helper whose main goal is to provide a safe and loving environment for children to learn and develop. I care deeply about aiding children in their development physically, mentally, and emotionally through communication, nutritious eating, and enriching activities and play. Most of all I love to take my time figuring out what will make a kid do a big belly laugh.

A little bit about me
Hi there! My name is Nicole and I’ve been on and off in the field for about 15 years now. Having worked with multiple families at once, I’d say I’m very flexible when it comes to a schedule but I can also appreciate a consistent schedule. I am a mom to a toddler girl and it’s the best to be able to provide genuine care to not only my own child but to others’ as well. I can provide references upon request!
