A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Bri, and I'm a nurturing, engaged, and knowledgeable nanny with 17 years of experience in childcare and education. You can expect me to treat your whole family with kindness, attentiveness, identity affirmation, and clear, collaborative communication. If you're seeking a nanny who feels like part of the family and cares just as much, please feel encouraged to reach out!

Practically speaking, I'm available full-time and year-round, not working around a student schedule or other conflicts (I completed my BA in 2017). I'm a non-smoker, fully vaccinated, and CPR/AED and First Aid-certified. I have my own car and a clean driving record, and I'm comfortable with pets in the home. I'm searching for full-time or equivalent work, and open to short-term contracts, nanny shares, and/or open-ended, long-term commitments to the right family.
