TEMPORARY AVAILABILTY, PLEASE CONTACT. CURRENT AVAILABILTY NOW - NOV 28. Maybe you are looking for fill-in childcare while looking for someone long-term OR just need random dates. My background check was renewed November 5, 2025. Hello! My name is Heidi, I am 51 years old and have 35 years experience working with children of all ages and abilities. I am kind, patient, have great time management and organizational skills, and above all else, love and adore children. My mother owned and operated an in-home daycare service in our home for 20 years throughout my K-12 years. During college I worked at Martha Rounds Academy for Children (now Elaine Rosi Academy) in Brentwood in the Newborn/Infant room as a care provider for 4 infants in a room of 16 infants and 4 care providers. I was a substitute teacher (all grades) for 7 years for the Lindbergh, Bayless, and Windsor School Districts from 2000-2007. I was an independent contractor for TLC for Kids, a babysitter/nanny placement service, from 2014-2018 working for 230 families!! In 2015-2016 I was a Nanny and Estate Manager for a family in Clayton 60 hours/week taking care of their entire estate and their 2 boys, including traveling solo with the boys and stepchildren all over the country and Australia. I have since worked for clients on other platforms and clients from my time at TLC for Kids (now TLC Family Care) I love to do puzzles, arts and crafts, dance, take walks, play sports, read books, bake cookies, imaginative play, play board games, spend time outside...whatever the kids want to do. With babies I am 100% interactive...singing, talking, tummy time, reading, etc., immersing the child into their surroundings. I can help with and supervise virtual learning, homework, and transport children to/from school and other places such as the local park or zoo. I am comfortable with cameras throughout the house and all pets. Flu and Covid-19 and Tdap Vaccinations are current. I have full coverage car insurance at maximum limits. 4 HOUR MINIMUM. $22/hr for up to 3 children. An additional $2/hr per additional child. I look forward to hearing from you!

Starting from newborns all the way to 16 year-olds. I am warm-hearted, laid back, and enjoy spending my time reading, spending time with my family and rewatching shows I’ve seen a million times. I simply love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage of their young lives. My strengths as a nanny are that I am very responsible, reliable and a caring person. I am passionate about furthering my time in the Nanny field so that I can continue doing what I love while also gaining hands on experience to help further my education in psychology. It is my passion to help people and be there for support whenever I am needed. Which is exactly what I will do if you were to choose me for the position. My goals as a Nanny is to take care of children, help them grow and watch them have fun! I am willing to do housekeeping that includes light housework, laundry, and meal preparation.

If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am honest, kind, energetic, trustworthy, and dependable.
