A little bit about me

I'm Kalyani, an experienced nanny from here on the Cape! For over three years, I hosted a successful nanny share at my previous home in Providence, RI also babysitting for many families throughout the state. Recently, I moved home to complete my Early Childhood Education degree and Child Development Associate Credential. Since graduating, I've eagerly returned to full-time nannying. I am committed to providing top quality care coming prepared to teach, be active, involved, and engaged with the children of whom I have the pleasure of caring for! My caregiving and curriculum style is geared toward fostering independence and confidence among children, helping them develop a variety of skillsets and creative abilities. I go above and beyond to meet each child where they are by providing memorable experiences that cater to each families’ individual needs, personalities, and evolving preferences to learn as their child grows.
I’d love to be of service! Thank you so much for your time!✨

Recent reference

"We are professional musicians who travel to different cities for work and often need to find temporary childcare, which can be very difficult. Kalyani cared for our children ages 4 and 6 several times when we were traveling and she is the best childcare provider we have ever found for out-of-town care. She had immense knowledge of early childhood practices, and brought activities, a sense of fun, and a great deal of patience and kindness, both for us and for our children. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a childcare provider!"

A little bit about me

I am a dedicated caregiver and mother to an 11-year-old girl, offering a unique blend of maternal intuition and 8+ years of professional experience in the autism and behavioral support field. My background spans from preschool-aged children to young adults, with a deep focus on neurodiversity and mental health.
Clinical Expertise & Experience:
• Formerly a Behavior Coach at two psychological practices on the Cape, the Barnstable school district, and local autism support agencies
• Highly skilled in de-escalation; I provide a calm, stabilizing presence during high-stress moments
I believe children thrive when they feel seen and safe. My care style is deeply nurturing and empathetic, yet “gently firm” with routines and boundaries to ensure a sense of security. I will always advocate for your child and prioritize honoring their individual means of communication and personal identity.
