I have been babysitting for other families for 11 years now. I have experience working with children 3 months to 18+ years of age. I obtained my Master's Degree in Occupational Therapy, so I also have experience with children who have special needs and/or medical complexities. I am comfortable watching multiple children at once, as I have previously worked for daycare centers. I enjoy facilitating various activities for kids that are both fun and educational. Several other duties that I've helped with include small meal prep, homework help, and light house cleaning. As I do have a primary full-time job, I am only looking to pick up occasional gigs (my availability may be flexible depending on the date(s) and times requested). Please feel free to contact me at anytime if you are looking for help! :)

Barb watched our little girl for a year, and we (and our daughter!) absolute adore her. She kept our daughter on a great routine, got in lots of fun outside time and walks, and she helped with so many incredible milestone activities for crawling, walking, and doing stairs safely. I cannot recommend Barb enough. Her love and care for children is evident. She really is a super nanny!

With over 30 years of hands-on experience nurturing children of all ages, I bring a lifelong passion and natural gift for childcare. Affectionately known as “The Baby Whisperer,” I have an intuitive ability to connect with infants and young children—creating joyful, engaging, and enriching environments wherever I go. Children are naturally drawn to me, and I truly speak their language—whether I’m soothing a newborn, connecting with a toddler, or helping a preschooler learn through play. I am currently work with children with special needs ranging in age from 3 to 26, as well as supporting 4th and 5th graders in school settings. These roles have strengthened my ability to provide individualized, compassionate care while fostering confidence and independence in each child. I’ve had the privilege of nannying for two wonderful families and raising my own children while being a stay-at-home mom for over 36 years. Caring for children doesn’t feel like work—it’s what brings me joy and purpose. I love to sing with children, do arts and crafts, and play both indoor and outdoor games. I weave learning into everyday activities—teaching letters, shapes, colors, and phonics in playful, creative ways. Time outside is one of my favorite things, whether we’re exploring nature, playing in the dirt (when allowed!), or enjoying movement and fresh air. I also have experience teaching swimming and helping children feel confident and safe in the water. I’ve completed 12 units in Early Childhood Development and am currently pursuing a degree in Child Development, giving me a strong foundation in how children grow, learn, and thrive. I’m also pursuing studies in Physical Education to support motor development and encourage active, healthy lifestyles. Highlights: 30+ years caring for children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens Experience with children with special needs (ages 3–26) and elementary school students College coursework in Child Development CPR/First Aid certified Passionate about music, creative arts, outdoor play, and learning through fun Open to roles as a nanny, caregiver, or “bonus grandma” My Philosophy: Children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged. My goal is to create joyful, structured spaces where they feel free to explore, grow, and become the amazing individuals they’re meant to be.

Kelly has been a wonderful nanny during the short time she has been with us—and we’re truly grateful for the positive impact she made. She consistently brought positive energy into our home and showed good knowledge in planning activities and supporting the kids’ development. We especially appreciated how she kept us informed about how the children were feeling and always shared thoughtful insights. She has been punctual, dependable, and genuinely caring. Even in a short period, our baby girl really enjoyed their time with her. We wish her the very best and highly recommend her!
