A little bit about me

Hi families! I’m Nesha—a passionate, reliable, and nurturing caregiver with a Master’s in Social Work and a deep love for supporting kids’ growth emotionally, mentally, and creatively. I’ve worked with children of all ages in both personal and professional settings, including those with special needs or trauma backgrounds. I bring a calm, playful, and structured presence that helps kids feel safe, seen, and celebrated.

When I’m not babysitting, you can find me journaling, planning community events, or walking in my purpose through my nonprofit. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, experienced with bedtime routines, and always open to creating fun, screen-free memories. I’m here to make your life easier, keep your little ones thriving, and become a trusted extension of your village. 💛

Looking forward to connecting!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Arts & crafts — I love helping kids express themselves creatively with painting, coloring, and fun DIY projects.
Outdoor play — Nature walks, playground time, scavenger hunts, and sidewalk chalk masterpieces are my faves!
Reading stories — I make storytime engaging with character voices and questions that spark imagination.
Dance parties — We burn energy and build confidence with music, movement, and just being silly together!
Educational games — I mix fun with learning through puzzles, flashcards, ABC games, and early math fun.
Baking simple treats — For older kiddos, I enjoy baking cookies or making snack time a mini cooking class.
Mindfulness moments — I gently introduce calming activities like breathing exercises or gratitude time.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive emotionally, mentally, and physically. It’s about being a trusted extension of the family—showing up with patience, consistency, and genuine love. I believe every moment is a chance to model kindness, encourage creativity, and support each child’s unique personality and development. This isn’t just a job—it’s a commitment to helping raise kind, confident, and happy little humans. 🧡

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite nanny moments was when a shy little girl I’d been caring for finally opened up and gave me a big hug out of nowhere. We had been working on building her confidence through storytelling and pretend play, and that moment showed me how much our bond had grown. It reminded me that the small, consistent things—like being present, patient, and playful—really matter. Moments like that make this work so meaningful to me. 💛
