"I am writing to highly recommend Emike who served as our family’s full-time nanny for 10 years, caring for our three children from 2016 to 2026. Over the past decade, Emike has been an invaluable part of our household. She managed all aspects of our children's daily routines, including preparing nutritious meals, managing school schedules, and organizing enriching educational activities. She seamlessly adapted her care as our children grew from infancy into their school-age years.Emike is exceptionally reliable, patient, and proactive. She possesses a natural ability to connect with children while maintaining clear, gentle boundaries. Her focus on safety, emotional development, and structured play gave us complete peace of mind every single day.She left our family only because our children have grown older and our care needs have changed. Any family would be incredibly fortunate to have her."

A little bit about me
Hello, I’m Abbey. I am 25 and live north of Nashville. I am currently working as a part time nanny, but open to new opportunities. I am fun and easygoing, but I know the importance of a good schedule and an organized home. I have over 6 years of experience in both nannying and summer camp settings. I absolutely adore children and always strive to provide a safe and loving environment for them to learn and grow. I love the Lord and want to make that know in my life and the work that I do! Outside of work, I love the outdoors, photography, time with friends, a good cup of coffee, and my dog Cam!

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Brinley, and I'm a University of Illinois Kinesiology grad, with plans to pursue a career as an Occupational Therapist. I'm passionate about helping others grow, learn, and thrive, which is what first inspired me to work with children.
For the past three years, I've worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) in a hospital setting, where I've developed patience, compassion, strong communication skills, and the ability to remain calm and dependable in any situation. Caring for patients of all ages has taught me the importance of building trust, creating a safe environment, and providing attentive, individualized care.
I understand that choosing someone to care for your children is a big decision, and I strive to be someone families can trust completely. I look forward to supporting your family and providing a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where your children can learn, grow, and have fun!
