A little bit about me

Hi families! I'm a nanny with 9 years of experience and I love caring for infants and toddlers.

I care for a five month old and have occasional weekday evening and weekend babysitting availability for families with children in the 0-3 year age range.

My approach to child-rearing is focused on developing a secure attachment relationship and providing responsive care that is attuned to the child's needs. I believe that behavior is communication and that children thrive with firm boundaries and lots of love. Emotional co-regulation and connection is the foundation that I strive for. I enjoy spending time outside, going for walks to nearby activities, and allowing children to lead their play. I'm happy to help with light housekeeping tasks as time permits.

It's important to me that any families that I work with are queer friendly and progressive.

Best of luck in your family’s search!

"Delaney was our nanny for our daughter from 6 months old to a little over 1 yo. She worked in our home full time Monday-Friday. She was so great with our daughter, taking her on walks, reading so many books to her, and thinking up fun sensory activities to help her development. She supported us with naps and all the developmental milestones that happen at that age. She is so gentle and patient with infants! Delaney is also very easy to communicate with, punctual, and extremely reliable. Delaney still babysits our daughter regularly and they have a great relationship to this day!"

"Delaney has been a key support person for our family. She started when our oldest was a young toddler, and is communicative, knowledgeable, responsible, trustworthy and highly experienced in caring for young children. She is also warm, kind and more than willing to accommodate our specific requests for our oldest son's needs as an AuDHD kiddo. She also acted as a mother's helper right after our youngest was born, with feeding, diapers, putting him down for naps, as well as washing dishes/bottles, folding laundry, and tidying the kitchen and toys. Delaney is a consistent and reliable caregiver, great with children, and a pleasure to work with."

"I cannot recommend Delaney highly enough as a nanny. She cared for our daughter from 5 months to 2.5 years old in a nanny share arrangement, and we truly could not have asked for a better caregiver. Delaney is kind, patient, and incredibly loving—you can tell she genuinely enjoys working with infants and toddlers, and her passion for child development shines through in everything she does. As first-time parents, my husband and I often had questions and uncertainties, and Delaney was always a source of reassurance and knowledge. She played an instrumental role in helping our daughter learn how to use the potty and sleep more independently. She is always proactive in planning fun, engaging activities and maintaining a great routine. As part of our nanny share, Delaney also did a wonderful job supporting each family's unique parenting approach. Delaney is the definition of a true professional—she is always early, incredibly communicative, and consistently goes above and beyond."

More About Me

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

I’ve loved children since I was a child and worked with toddlers and preschoolers in the childcare program at my church growing up, from 5th grade until I was 17. My professional experience began in 2017 with my first nanny position caring for an 18 month old. In 2018 I worked at a daycare for almost a year while nannying part-time, and that experience solidified that nannying is the career for me. I have cared for several infants as a full time nanny from the baby stage to toddler/preschooler. I have also done lots of occasional babysitting and date nights with infants and toddlers, including newborn and toddler sibling duos.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love taking children to the park, story time, music class, and any other developmentally appropriate activities within walking distance. I also love reading, singing songs, dramatic play, and setting up art and sensory experiences. I believe in allowing children to lead their play and providing them with open-ended opportunities for exploration.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I believe that the most essential role of a nanny is to nurture and advocate for the well being and development of children in their care. I also believe that it is the nanny’s job to support parents in their unique parenting journey and to uplift the parent-child relationship.

My experience with special needs children...

I have some experience working with children in the preschool age who have autism. I’m comfortable working with neurodiverse children and believe in meeting every child where they are at.
