A little bit about me
Hi! I'm Savannah :)
I grew up on a farm in Winston Salem, NC.
I love to learn and wanted to be a Physician Assistant, so I did a premed degree at App State and my preclinical experience at a pediatrics office for 2 years until I went on to ECU for PA school.
After 2 semesters of PA school, I decided it wasn't for me .. now I'm looking for a change and a way to pay off my loans as I figure out the next step. I have been a nanny and for countless families over the years and have 11+ years of babysitting experience. I am a responsible driver, a good swimmer and I love to be outside. I LOVE to cook and clean. But most of all, I love kids. As your nanny I would seek to not only play with your kids but to help engage them in activities that help build life skills and a love for learning. I typically try to limit screen time and promote reading and active playing.
In my free time, I love to write music, go for long runs and watch the sunrise.

"Hello, my name is Colleene, and I am a Newborn Care Specialist with extensive experience in toddler development. My dual expertise means that while I am helping you build healthy sleep and feeding foundations for your newborn, I also understand the bigger picture of child development. I know how to navigate the transition for older siblings and set up routines that prevent common toddler sleep regressions later on.

"To Whom It May Concern:
I am pleased to recommend Colleene Carmichael. She worked as a newborn care provider in Orlando, Florida, under a three-month contract with me from February 2025 through May 2025.
During her contract, Colleene provided hands-on care for a newborn, including feeding support, sleep shaping and soothing, bathing and diaper care, maintaining daily care logs, and keeping the nursery clean and organized. She followed the family's care plan closely, communicated clearly with the parents, and brought a calm, steady presence to overnights.
Colleene is dependable, punctual, and genuinely warm with infants. She earned the family's trust quickly and worked well alongside the rest of the care team. Her professionalism and attentiveness to the baby's needs were evident throughout the entire contract.
I recommend Colleene without reservation for any newborn care or nanny role. Any family would be fortunate to have her.
Sincerely,
Anna M. Payne"

"Marisa joined our family in February 2024 to take care of our - at the time 7 year old - now 8 year old son. She has been an excellent addition to our family. She is not just an employee, she is a friend and now apart of our family. My son adores Marisa and always wants her attention. They laugh together and do lots of fun activities, as well. She has been teaching him Spanish along the way, which I love. I think it’s important to expand their young minds and learn something like a new language while they have the opportunity. The only reason that Marisa is moving forward from our little family is because we have not been able to give her full time hours like she needs. We have only been able to give her part-time hours in hopes that she could find another part-time job, which has turned out to be more difficult than we had hoped. All we want for Marisa is for her to find a nice family. If you have any questions, or would like to talk, I am more than happy to speak with you."
