A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Brooke. I’m a CPR/AED-certified nanny with 4+ years of childcare experience caring for children from 6 weeks old through 8 years old.

I have experience with infant care, toddler routines, early childhood activities, meal preparation, and creating a safe and engaging environment where children can learn and thrive.

I truly enjoy being active and creative with kids — whether that’s outdoor adventures, crafts, reading, educational games, or simply making everyday routines fun. I believe children do best when they feel safe, supported, and encouraged.

In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help support busy families through child-related household tasks such as children’s laundry, meal prep, organization, and maintaining routines.

I take the responsibility of caring for children seriously and understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can fully trust.

Most Important Part of Being a Nanny

The most important part of being a nanny is getting to be a positive influence in a child’s life and watching them grow—not only physically, but emotionally, socially, and as an individual. I love the opportunity to build a trusting relationship with both the child and their family, while creating a supportive environment where they feel safe, encouraged, and cared for. I also enjoy being able to share my experiences, guidance, and encouragement as they learn and grow.

My experience with special needs children...

Experience With Special Needs

While I have experience caring for children with a variety of personalities, ages, and needs, I do not currently have specialized training or experience providing care for children with significant special needs or medical requirements. I want to be transparent about my abilities and ensure I am the right fit for each family’s unique needs.

Favorite Moments With Children

One of my favorite moments with children is when they proudly share their drawings and artwork with me. I love seeing their creativity and how excited they get to show me something they made. I always enjoy putting their artwork on my fridge because it’s a fun reminder of the special moments and memories we’ve created together.
