A little bit about me

Hello! Thank you for considering me for the care of your little one. I am an experienced, mother-of-five (all older!) who adores children and approaches child rearing with a true sense of wonder. Children are amazing! I have plenty of experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers, and with my large crew, I have pretty much seen it all. My mothering style is gentle and child-led with lots of singing, stories, imagination and outings. In addition to my personal childcare experience, I also owned a small business that provided Waldorf/Montessori mother-child classes. In my "life before kids," I was a lawyer. I currently nanny for a wonderful family in Newton, but their little one is headed to preschool soon. I have a squeaky clean driving record, am fully vaccinated, enjoy "keeping house," and am infant CPR certified.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have raised five wonderful children, including homeschooling for more than 12 years. I was involved in Waldorf mother/child playgroups for many years and owned my own business that offered Waldorf/Montessori mother/child groups. I also briefly worked at a large daycare center, but quickly decided it wasn’t for me. I am currently a nanny for a wonderful family in Newton. I have been with them for over a year. Their little one is headed to preschool soon.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love doing crafts and handwork with children and creating a seasonal rhythm with them. I also enjoy going on walks and making music.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Bonding with a child and giving parents security in the knowledge that a mature and loving person is caring for their child.

My experience with special needs children...

I do not have any real experience with special needs children.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moments with children always involve watching them achieve a new accomplishment. Whether it’s rolling over for the first time, taking a first step, or solving a long division problem, the smile they have when they have done something new is priceless.

Valerie B. - Seeking Work in Norwood

Full-Time Nanny Available in Norwood, MA: Valerie B.

Hello! I am a career nanny currently working part time with an amazing family! (I'm also a former preschool and daycare teacher, religious education teacher, former co-foster parent, and former home facilitator, mother of two!) I feel so blessed to have been on this journey with my current nanny family for so long but am really hoping to get back to working with a younger crew...infants or very young toddlers. My nanny family leaves some pretty big shoes to fill so I am definitely taking my time and looking for a perfect match! While I recognize that I have listed a start date, I would like to provide my current family with 4 weeks of notice if possible so my start date would fluctuate. However, I am flexible for the right fit.
I am looking for probably +/- 40 hours, depending on the situation. (If I can work it around my current family, I am happy to consider another part time position, otherwise, closer to full time.)

Please reach out if you'd like to chat!
