A little bit about me
Hello!
I’m a nurturing and compassionate nanny who believes in creating a calm and supportive environment where children can thrive. My approach is gentle and child-centered. I take the time to truly listen to each child’s needs, whether it’s helping them work through a challenge, comforting them when they’re feeling upset, or simply providing a safe space for them to express themselves.
I believe in fostering a sense of trust and security, where children feel comfortable exploring their world while knowing they are cared for and understood. I strive to create an atmosphere where each child feels valued and respected.
Whether it’s through imaginative play, problem-solving together, or offering a gentle word of encouragement, my goal is always to help children feel confident, comfortable, and most of all, happy.

A little bit about me
I'm a college student and during the school year I'm working as an art teacher. I work with kids pre-k to 8th grade. I enjoy art, anime, travel and crafts. I am quite playful and fun, I would say I can match the energy of a child. I'm normally very fun, energetic, and always looking for new adventures.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Mads Smith, I’m 22 years young, and have quite the passion when it comes to creating trustworthy, and dependable relationships with kiddos, and their families! I have over 8 years of experience, working with children as young as 8 weeks old - to 10 years! However I’d have to say my favorite age group has been 0-4! Nannying has been one of the most rewarding, and fulfilling positions for me, and fortunately after years of wildly educating experience, I consider myself a professional career nanny.
With an interest in Montessori education practices, all things gentle parenting, and an incredibly open mind, I will work to help guide and uplift your child in all ways possible. My main goal is to curate safe, and dependable relationships so they can grow to be empowered, happy, self assured, kind hearted people.
As of now, I currently am working full time with a family until July when I will switch to part time. Then come September I be looking for full time work!

Nanny Jamie
"We had a wonderful experience with Jamie as a nanny to our daughter. Very nurturing and kept her busy. Took her many places (library, children’s museum, play dates, etc) and established a great routine. Really helped our shy toddler come out of her shell and try new things. Focused on child development and appropriate activities."
- Laura
Nanny Mariana
"Mariana is everything and more than we could have ever hoped for in a nanny! She is extremely reliable and dedicated and the love and care she provided to our kids was amazing! We truly believe that nannies like Mariana are rare and hard to find so we are forever grateful for her:)"
- Heather Mergen
Nanny Bri
"Bri was great with our daughter making sure her needs were met while making sure her feelings were taken seriously also. Our daughter has a disability so Bri’s caring patience was much appreciated. She took care of our daughter off and on over several years and became like a member of the family. She was so much help. Was sad to see her move out of state."
