A little bit about me
I’m a nurturing, creative mom and professional caregiver who truly enjoys supporting families during this fleeting stage of childhood. Parent of a 14‑year‑old daughter heading into high school, which has deepened my appreciation for how fast these years pass.
I bring over 20 years of experience as a Gerontologist in care‑centered leadership roles, grounded in patience, empathy, safety, and trust. At this point in my life, I’m thoughtfully exploring what my next chapter of purpose will be, and in the meantime I’m intentionally doing work I love, hands‑on caregiving.
As a babysitter, I offer a calm, attentive, and playful presence. I enjoy reading, imaginative play, light crafts, conversation, and supporting routines while honoring each family’s values. I’m reliable, communicative, and emotionally aware. If you have pets, that’s a plus, I’m very comfortable with furry family members.
My goal is to care for your child with warmth and intention, and to give you genuine peace of mind.

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!"
