• Reliability: Nancy is always on time and dependable.
• Communication: She keeps us updated regularly on our daughter's well-being and sends photos to keep us in the loop.
• Engagement: Nancy navigates activity drop-offs and pickups with ease, introduces new foods, handles meal prep, and even helps with our daughter's Spanish language development.
• Outdoor Activities: Nancy takes our daughter outside daily to parks, playgrounds, story times, pools, and splash pads. She also meets with other nanny friends so our daughter can safely play with other children.
• Creative Learning: Nancy does art projects, reads, and actively engages with our daughter through play.
• Travel: Nancy is also flexible and has traveled with our family within the United States.
I’m happy to answer any questions you might have.
