A little bit about me
! I’m Dani and I’m excited to help care for your little ones! I have 4 years of experience working with children of all ages, and I’m passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s assisting with homework, organizing creative activities, or simply providing a listening ear, I’m dedicated to ensuring your child feels cared for and supported. I always strive to communicate openly with parents to ensure peace of mind. I look forward to becoming a trusted caregiver for your family!
I enjoy working with kids because you find joy in their energy, curiosity, and unique perspectives. Children often bring a sense of playfulness and creativity to everyday moments, which can be fulfilling. I also feel a sense of purpose in guiding and nurturing their growth, helping them learn new things, and being a positive influence in their lives. Additionally, the connections you build with kids can be deeply rewarding, as they often show genuine affection and trust.

Hi I'm Fiona and I have more than 10 years of experience in childcare. I am a mature, responsible, reliable and cheerful person with excellent childcare and interpersonal skills and extensive experience as a live-out/live-in nanny. I simply love children, love caring for them and find them fascinating, and I am seeking further nanny work to continue doing what I love and broadening my experience. I have experience in providing on-going care to children of different ages, track record of assuming total responsibility of home in absence of parents and very skilled in managing hostile behavior of children in a polite manner.

"Shurla has been with us since our daughter was five months old. It was nerve-wracking to let anyone else take care of her after doing it on our own during COVID, but Shurla knew exactly what she was doing. From tummy time to starting solids to sleep training to potty training, she was our guide and support system; Josephine sailed past her milestones thanks to her. My friends still call me to get Shurla's advice when they have issues with their own kids (or nannies!). As things opened up, Shurla helped us build a whole new network in our neighborhood. Whether she was connecting Jo to her first group of friends by hosting arts and crafts and music days, composing legendary goodie bags for all Jo's birthday parties, or getting to know the regulars at the playground, she's the reason that our COVID baby is comfortable with any and everyone. She's been a friend and a part of our family for the last three years and we're devastated to be moving away from her!"

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Mary, I've been nannying full part/full time since college. I've worked a variety of jobs with children of different ages, but most frequently the age groups of 9 months-4 years. My current job is working with a little girl on the autism spectrum, and she will soon be transitioning into a full day of school as opposed to being at home with a nanny, so I'm looking for something new. I love kids, I've always thought I'd have kids but at this stage in my life I'm less certain; getting to help raising babies and children is a real privilege. I'd love to be of assistance! Let me know if you think I'd be a good fit, and I can send along my resume with references.
