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 with our family for the past 10 months, caring for our son since he was just 6 months old. We have three kids, are two working parents, occasionally travel for work, and have a schedule that seems to change constantly, so having someone we can genuinely count on has been incredibly important to us. Kelly has been that person. What stands out most to me is that she doesn’t just come in and “watch the baby.” She pays attention to him. As he’s grown and changed, she’s taken an interest in figuring out what he needs at each stage. She’ll bring over or suggest a new sensory toy or activity because she thinks he’s ready for it, work with him on whatever milestone he’s tackling, and look for things they can do outside the house. She takes him for walks or to the park almost every day and has even researched things like library music and story times that they could do together. She also notices the little things. If he suddenly isn’t eating as much, his naps start changing, or something just seems a little off, she brings it up. I’ve really appreciated that, especially since he’s gone through so many changes during his first year - teething, growth spurts, transitioning to a bottle, crawling to walking... the list goes on! Another big thing for our family has been Kelly’s flexibility. Our schedule isn’t always predictable, and over the past year we’ve had plenty of days where plans changed or we needed to adjust things. She has consistently been easy to communicate with and willing to work with us, which has made our lives so much easier. We are sadly moving on from having a nanny, simply because we now have three kiddos headed to three different schools/programs, and financially and logistically it makes more sense for our family. We’ve been extremely happy with Kelly and would keep her if our family circumstances weren’t changing. I would absolutely recommend Kelly to a family looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and truly engaged with their child (or children! She is amazing with our other two kids as well and has occasionally watched all three together). More than anything, I trust Kelly with our son. He is SO happy to see her when she arrives, and it’s obvious that she cares about him too. She has been such an important part of his first year, and we are really going to miss having her here. For me, that says a lot more than anything else I could put in a review. <3

Hi there! My name is Ava. I am 20 years old. I am a young adult looking for work to help support myself for my future as a new adult, as well as my family. I love working with children because I've always wanted to be a mother, but unfortunately I may not get to be which is why I have grown a strong passion to babysit as my occupation as I am out of school and have a lot of time on my hands. I am extremely empathetic and skilled as far as connecting with children, making them feel safe/nurtured, and maintaining responsibilities that come with them. I can cook fairly well and clean very efficiently. I have been babysitting my little cousins since I was very young. I have experience with children from newborns up to 12 years old. I do have experience with taking care of children with special needs. I have even traveled with toddlers and taken care of them by myself in NYC. I have lots of patience and an extremely flexible schedule since I am graduated and not currently enrolled in college. I will be willing to satisfy any/all needs for your child(ren), even running errands and transporting as needed. As well as patience, I have lots of energy to keep me on my feet and on top of responsibilities, maintenances, duties, etc.

Hi! I’m Catalina! 😊 I’m currently a college student working toward my Bachelor of Social Work, and I also have an associate degree in Allied Health with a focus in Pre-Nursing. Caring for others has always been something I genuinely love, but working with kids is especially rewarding to me! I’m very patient, dependable, hands-on, and honestly just love having fun with kids! I’m always happy to get down on the floor and play, do crafts, read books, go outside, play games, help with homework, or come up with activities based on what your child enjoys. I especially love helping little ones learn and develop, and supporting them as they work toward new developmental milestones. I’m also completely comfortable with the everyday parts of childcare, including diaper changes, bottles and feeding, snacks and simple meals, naps, bedtime routines, and light cleanup. My background in caregiving, healthcare, and pre-nursing has taught me to be very attentive, patient, responsible, and comfortable caring for others while always keeping safety in mind. I have reliable transportation and am looking for part-time babysitting or nannying that works around my school and work schedule, especially afternoons, evenings, date nights, and weekends. I’m genuinely so excited to meet new families and hopefully find a family that I can really get to know and build a comfortable, trusting relationship with. I’d love to become someone both you and your little ones are excited to see! 😊

I was a Nanny to a wonderful 7 month old little boy, part time but the family no longer needs my services so I have full availability. I truly enjoy working with children of all ages but my paid experience has been mostly with babies. It’s such a joy to watch them learn and grow into little people. It’s such a rewarding experience to be able to care for others most precious beings. I was an Infant Teacher many years ago but also floated throughout the different age group classrooms. I don’t have a preference on ages, it just happens to be that my experience has mostly been with babies. I have many nieces and nephews whom I’ve helped care for, in addition to my own son (who is now an adult) whom I raised.
