"We have been extremely happy with Paola’s care for our infant son! He is so happy to see her each morning and even seems reluctant to leave her at the end of the day. She is very attentive to his developmental needs and evolving sleeping/eating schedules - she informs us regularly about how much he’s eating and how naps are going, and any new skills or behaviors he’s making progress on. Evening meals and bedtime are always smooth sailing on the days has spent with her. We also love that she sends updates via texts - photos, videos, etc. Note: we are still active customers of Paola’s as of writing this, but this form required that I specify an end date so I put the current date."

"Kelsy cared for my two children (3 and 1) from January to August 2020 when I took on more work responsibilities. She has been great with my children and they really had fun with her!
She is nurturing, affectionate, attentive and always kept them engaged with different activities that she organized; arts & crafts, singing and games! Equally importantly, she is dependable, flexible, and trustworthy. She also took a lot of precautions with COVID which was important. My children have now been in preschool for 7 months but still ask about Kelsy."

A little bit about me
Hi! I'm Courtney and I have been babysitting for over 2 decades and nannying full time for over a decade. I practice gentle/responsive caregiving, but am highly adaptable to adjusting to a families style and function. I love working with children of all ages and have worked with kids from 4 months to 18 years old. The first family I nannied for had kids with special needs and I found out very quickly I enjoyed working with these kids and families. I have worked with kids who have autism, ADHD, add, dyslexia, dysgraphia, auditory processing disorders, memory issues, and a variety of other cognitive disabilities and/or neuro divergences.
I went to school for elementary education and was fortunate to spend a lot of time volunteering in classrooms. In addition to nannying I have worked at an after school program, coached youth softball and gave youth pitching lessons.
In my free time you can find me hanging out with my dog, listening to music, reading, hula hooping and baking.
