"Nikisha is amazing. She is caring, compassionate and patient. She also happens to be super organized and great at repairing ALL SORTS of things. While she was with our family she was truly mom #2. My daughter absolutely loves her, and still regularly tells me that Nikisha explains homework better than anyone else. :-)
She doesn’t chat on her phone, ignore your children or watch the clock—she is the total opposite of that! Taking your children out for walks to look for fairies, making homemade posters and helping your child grow as a person will be the norm. If you are looking for a nanny who will become part of your family and care for your child(ren) the way you do, than Nikisha is the one. She truly is wonderful."

"I recommend Pamela highly. Pamela always took excellent care of our two boys, and she is loving, patient, flexible and organized. She is highly trustworthy and responsible, and takes pride in doing her job well. I was extremely comfortable knowing that Pamela was taking care of our kids while I was working; I always knew they were safe, happy and engaged when they were with her. She proactively helped with the kids' reading and other learning and development. She took the initiative to arrange playdates and other activities, making sure they were actively engaged and nurturing friendships with other children. Pamela was a pleasure to work with and our kids adore her. She still keeps in touch with us, spends time with the kids and visits them for birthdays and holidays. "

A little bit about me
Hi there!
My name is Chloé, I'm 25, and in my spare time I enjoy sewing, art, reading, and video games (Love to bond with kiddos over this one).
I have experience in childcare and previously taught STEM, coding classes, and swimming to kids aged 4 to 17. On top of that, I'm the oldest of five siblings, the youngest of which is turning nine this year, so I've had a lot of time to get cozy with taking care of people by helping my mom growing up.
I'm more than happy to answer any questions at all, there are no silly questions and I'm an open book! :)
I look forward to chatting!

"Chloé has led our team incredibly the last three years and we are sad to lose her. But it makes us happy knowing she'll get to share her amazing qualities with other people. She has always come to work with a smile, which isn't an easy feat, and is always willing to help anyone she can. On top of that, she's crazy organized, when I've asked her to do something I find that she's already done it and more! I can't sing enough praise for her."

"Raphaela is kind, intelligent, responsible, punctual, and not only watched my three young kids, but also made significant efforts to make my life easier as a busy, working mom. She kept my active kids busy, assisted with meal planning and prepping, and managed playdates and multiple activities. My children looked forward to seeing Raphaela every week, and even though we outgrew the need for a full time nanny they still love her and ask about her regularly."
