Hello! Thanks for checking out my profile. As someone who spends all day learning and growing alongside children and adolescents, I'd love to find a great family to support on my evening/weekends. Currently, I am in the process of completing an Ed.M. in school psychology at Teachers College, Columbia University. Prior to this degree, I worked as a family counselor and K-5 science/teaching associate at schools here in Manhattan as well as in sunny Menlo Park, CA. I also have prior experience as a nanny for two great families in Boston and San Francisco with children ranging from K-6th grade. Oh and, I can hold my own in Spot It and special character voices for books at bedtime :-). Looking forward to meeting your family!

Hello, My name is Michaela. I am a Mom with 14 years of childcare experience and 7 years into Motherhood. I am someone that is punctual, transparent, prioritizes safety, maximizes fun, and always with reliable transportation. I take pride in creating an environment filled with learning, laughter, and warmth whether that is within my home or yours. As a nanny and a Mom, I enjoy exploring the outdoors or new local parks, encouraging imaginative play, and engaging children through educative play, games or Montessori style activities. I am comfortable with pets (love them actually), a non-smoker, and CPR certified. A little background; I started babysitting at 14yrs old and by 18 I became a full time nanny. Over the years I have been a long term nanny/sitter for multiple different families as well as providing sick care or urgent back up care. My experience ranges from caring for 1-6 children at a time with ages ranging from newborn infant to twelve years old. I also have twin experience! I am a twin Mom myself and I have worked for families with twins. When not working in childcare, I can be found supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum as a doula and childbirth educator. If you feel I am the right nanny of your family and would like to chat more, please reach out. I look forward to speaking with you!

I really enjoy kids! They are naturally authentic and interested in the world. I studied Math and Education in college, and got teaching experience in classrooms ranging from kindergarten to high school. I got certified to teach secondary math, and went on to do a year of Americorps service after college. I moved to Boston in 2007 and began babysitting until I figured out what was next. I enjoyed what I was doing so much that I went on to become a full time nanny the following year. I worked for three years for a family with three children- ages 2, 5, and 7 when I started. After the youngest was off to kindergarten, I took a new position, a nanny share caring for two 2-year old girls. I’ve also babysat for multiple families over the years ranging from overnights with infant twins to school vacation help for 12-year olds. I taught the preschool class at my church for 5 years as well. In October 2012, I had a daughter of my own! I began bringing her along to babysitting/ nanny positions, which worked out quite well. In 2019, after working as a nanny/ babysitter for 12 years, I transitioned to teaching. I worked as an assistant in a combined Pre-K/Kindergarten class for four years before becoming the lead teacher of a separate Pre-K class. I had another daughter in January 2024 and am currently exploring the possibility of a babysitting position where I can bring my 1-year old daughter along.
