A little bit about me

Hi Everyone,
My name is Julie Liberty, I’m a professional nanny who studied child care for 2 years in vocational school. Working with children has truly become my calling. I love children of all ages and have also taken care of children with special needs. I enjoy doing imaginative & creative educational play, I love all outdoor activities, play guitar, own a pony (the children I’ve cared for in the past love pony rides). I am happy to help out with family pets, do laundry & light housekeeping. I consider it a honor to help you out with your little ones and take joy in the fact that they have had a fun filled day and that I can relieve some of the stress load that working parents face today. I look forward to chatting with you.

"Sofia cared for my two children ( and still does when needed) and they were always so happy to see her. They would even beg for us to have her over even when I didn’t need a sitter. She engages them with crafts and baking activities instead of them just hanging out on an iPad all day. She also would do picking up around the house and even helped me meal prep multiple times!"

A little bit about me

Hello! I’d love to support your family’s child care needs. I’m CPR and First Aid certified (infants and adults), with 8 years of experience caring for children from newborns to teens. I’ve worked as both a nanny and in daycare while earning my Master’s in Social Work, with a focus on family dynamics and child development. My most recent position was a children and family therapist before I had my son.

After having my son in December 2024, I realized I want to keep doing what I love—working with children and families—while spending more time with him. I’m passionate, reliable, flexible, and happy to follow your parenting preferences. I love cooking, can manage allergies, and I’m comfortable driving kids to parks, libraries, and local events. I also help with light housework, including laundry. Pets are no problem either!

Thank you for considering me. I’m happy to answer any questions! – Karah Geyer
