A little bit about me
Hi! I’m a nanny with 12 years of experience caring for kids of all ages — from tiny newborns to big kids with big personalities. I studied at Belmont University and even minored in childhood development because I’ve always loved watching little ones learn and grow. I’m a mix of fun and structure — the kind of nanny who can build a blanket fort one minute and get everyone through bedtime without a meltdown the next. I take pride in being dependable, upbeat, and someone parents can truly count on.

A little bit about me
My name is LaNae. I’m a nurturing mother of two energetic boys, ages 4 and 6, with a deep understanding of child development, patience, and structure. I bring a warm, loving approach to care and enjoy creating fun, educational routines. In my free time, I love singing, rollerskating, and bringing loved ones together for game nights and home-cooked meals—my specialties are lamb pasta and salmon. Seeing others smile from my cooking brings me joy. I’m dependable, creative, and passionate about helping children feel safe, supported, and free to be themselves in a positive environment where they can thrive.

A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Andrew Edwards, and I’m a 29-year-old father of three children, all born in 2020, including my son who is autistic. Being a hands-on parent has given me real-life experience in caring for children with different needs and personalities. I’ve also spent much of my life babysitting for family and friends, which has deepened my understanding of patience, structure, and fun in a child’s day-to-day life. Outside of childcare, I enjoy sports, painting, and writing—activities I love to share with kids to help spark their creativity and keep them active and engaged. I’m passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and joyful environment for the children I work with.
