Hi! I’m Rory, a nanny with over five years of experience working with children of all ages. My background encompasses both classroom and in-home settings, providing a strong foundation in child development, age-appropriate activities, and flexible caregiving tailored to each family’s unique needs.
In addition to childcare, I have extensive experience in household management. Including meal prep, grocery shopping, maintaining routines, and coordinating busy schedules — including school, extracurriculars, and appointments. I aim to keep things running smoothly so parents can focus on what matters most.
As for me, I grew up surrounded by nature and music. That upbringing has shaped who I am — creative, grounded, and always up for an adventure!
I love sharing my passions with the children I care for, whether it's through art projects, outdoor exploration, or music. I bring a calm, positive energy into the home and truly enjoy building meaningful connections with kids and their families.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Imani, but everyone calls me Manii for short. I just wanted to start off by saying I genuinely love kids, although I don’t currently have any of my own.
I’ve been babysitting for as long as I can remember—starting out helping a neighbor as a favor. Up until last year, I wasn’t getting paid for it, but I decided to take something I love and turn it into a real opportunity. I also currently work as a 1-on-1 aide/para at Mastery Charter Schools, most recently at Shoemaker.
I truly treat every child I care for like they’re my own, and I love building real connections with them. I hope after reading this, you’ll consider me as a great match to be your nanny and support your children.
