A little bit about me

Hi my name is Michelle,
I’m a licensed clinical social worker of 28 years. I have worked with children for a good portion of my career.
Although, I work part time in my own private therapy, I am looking to work with children in a different capacity other than therapy.

I am not yet a grandmother, and it warms my heart to be around children!
I absolutely love children and I am a child at heart myself. I have a 27 year old son.

I have a nice big SUV with a lot of room if I was needed to take your children anywhere.

I love going for walks, being outdoors, and being very active.
I am very health conscious and I actually have my own Holistic Healing business.

I have a copy of my most recent background check but I would gladly do another one as well!

I am very reliable, loyal, and committed to my job no matter what that entails.

I would love to meet you and your children and see if we are a good fit.

"I supervised Michelle when she was a therapist at St Clair County Community Mental Health. I’ve known her over 15 years and hold her in very high regard. Michelle’s background as a child therapist will be a great benefit to her in any position working with children, including as a nanny. She is patient, nurturing and creates an environment where children feel safe and cared for. She logged many hours of continuing education, specific to working with children, beyond her degree. She was trained in first aid and CPR, and as a CMH employee passed all background checks standard in working with children. As an employee she was dependable, on time, had a positive attitude and I could always count on her. It’s my pleasure to offer the highest recommendation for Michelle! Please feel free to contact me at (810) 441-7254 if I can offer any further information."

A little bit about me

Hello my name is Tay, I am a dedicated child care worker, looking to bring my light to assist parents with their children and homes. In my free time I do yoga, like to be in nature, and like to indulge myself in knowledge. I have been working with kids all my life. My first nanny job I got in high school where I was a live in nanny for a family of 3, this is where I gained a lot of the knowledge I now utilize. In my previous roles I worked in foster care with kids with behavioral challenges. I am trauma informed and also have a background in mindfulness and yoga.

She is trustworthy, attentive, and goes above and beyond. She is skilled at adjusting to each individual child’s needs. There was always great communication and she always showed up in timely fashion whenever she was needed. I never had a problem trusting her with my home or children. I would highly recommend Taylea."
