Hello! My name is Rachel, and I recently graduated from Nova Southeastern University with a Bachelor’s degree in Exercise and Sport Science on a Pre-PA track. I have over three years of experience nannying for a family with five children, in addition to regularly babysitting for six other families. Building strong, lasting relationships with both children and parents is very important to me, and I am grateful to still stay in touch with all of the families I have worked with. In my childcare roles, I help manage day-to-day responsibilities such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, homework support, transportation to activities, and ensuring that household routines and responsibilities are completed smoothly. I also love animals and am happy to assist with pet care and related tasks. I have reliable transportation and am comfortable driving children to and from school, activities, and appointments. Additionally, I have experience working with children with Read more special needs and always strive to provide a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for every child in my care.
