A little bit about me
Hello!
My name is Kiara and I have over 7 years of experience in the nanny and childcare space. I have worked with children ranging from 2 weeks to 12 years old but specialize with those 7 and under. I have worked with medically fragile and those with disabilities which is also a specialty kind of care I can provide. I am BLS certified (A step above CPR, intended for healthcare professionals). I am actually a nurse by trade, but in a transitional period in my life and career as I take a step back to cure some burnout and care for an ill family member and would love to invite part time work as a nanny once more (I did it from high school and up through nursing school). I am confident in my ability to care for your children, engage with them, and make our time together a blast while also enriching their age appropriate development in fun and exciting ways.
Fun facts: I am a dancer (Latin ballroom, jazz, and hip hop!!), bookworm, love being out in the sun, and am the queen of crafts :)

"Lili is a loving, collaborative person, she helped me a lot with my daughter's development, she is responsible and punctual. Since Sofie was little she was interested in doing activities for her motor development and that was a great help, she read to her a lot and asked her opinion when she finished reading her favorite stories, I recommend her 100%"

A little bit about me
Hi I’m Kelsey! Most of my work experience has been working in child care. I’ve been a nanny, worked in daycare, after school programs and I’ve even volunteered in special needs classrooms. I have experience working with children of all ages. From newborns to teenagers. I’d also typically be in charge of about 20-30 kids at a time so I am well equip to handle chaos! I get along with children very well and I am still close with many of the families I have worked for in the past. The only criticism I’ve received was from an 8 year old boy who said I was “the worst babysitter ever because you actually make us go to bed at our bedtime.” Also apparently I’m not as good at video games as other babysitters. So unless you need a nanny that can win a game of super smash bros than I think I could be the perfect fit for your family!

"Cynthia has taken care of all my 3 boys since they were a few months old. She is caring, and meticulous when it comes to care taking. She is responsible, yet friendly, approachable and the kids love her. I would recommend Cynthia to anyone. She has loads of experience, and my kids definitely miss having her around."

Nanny Lucas
"Lucas is calm, kind, responsible, and so great with the kids — they have so much fun playing with him and immediately felt comfortable around him. The fact that he is majoring in nursing is an added bonus and gives us extra peace of mind. He is dependable, easy to communicate with, and creates such a positive, relaxed environment. We absolutely recommend him to other families!"
