My reviews from parents may be old, but I am still an occasional sitter for them :-) I started at 12 as a mother's helper, at 15 a babysitter, at 17 a nanny. I am currently 30 years old. I have a part time babysitting family that I have been with for almost 7 years and a nannying position for over 10 years. I also have about 6 years combined care giving for mental and physical disabilities and limitations. As every situation and every child is different I take these needs request by request. My only rule is that I meet your children at least once with you present to get to know them first. This helps them to open up to me versus being shy and scared if you just leave them the first day they meet me.

I'm a warm, dependable caregiver with a big heart for little humans and years of experience caring for children. I truly understand the beautiful chaos, patience, and love that come with caring for kids. My experience includes owning a licensed home daycare as well as working as a professional nanny. I've cared for children from infancy through school age and have supported families with everything from daily routines and developmental activities to school-age care and busy family schedules. I have experience with baby sign language and children with special needs. Childhood should be filled with laughter, learning, exploration, and feeling deeply cared for. Whether we're reading stories, building forts, playing at the park, or heading out for storytime, I love keeping children engaged while creating a safe and nurturing environment. If this sounds like something your family is looking for please reach out. I'd love the opportunity to become a valued part of your family's village!

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Leanne for any position involving child care or child development. For several years, Leanne served as the nanny to my two children, from infancy through their early childhood years. During this time, she exhibited unparalleled dedication, compassion, and skill in managing the unique and challenging needs of my family. Leanne began caring for my youngest child as an infant, expertly navigating the demanding requirements of early childhood care. She continued this exemplary care until he reached four years old and transitioned to full-time preschool. Simultaneously, she also cared for my older son, from the age of three until he was nearly seven. This dual responsibility showcased Leanne’s exceptional ability to balance the needs of children at different developmental stages. One of the most remarkable aspects of Leanne’s care was her ability to interact with and nurture my nonverbal autistic son. Her patience, understanding, and tailor-made approaches to his needs were nothing short of extraordinary. Her ability to communicate effectively with him, despite the challenges of his nonverbal condition, was a source of relief and comfort to our family. Leanne's professionalism extends beyond her direct interactions with the children. Her decision-making skills are impeccable, and I trusted her judgment implicitly when it came to the well-being of my children. Her calm and composed demeanor, even in the most challenging situations, made her an invaluable presence in our home. She is unflappable, a quality that is essential in the unpredictable world of child care. Moreover, Leanne's versatility and resourcefulness were evident in her ability to manage multiple tasks and adapt to the varying needs of each child. Her commitment to creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment has had a lasting positive impact on my children’s development. In conclusion, Leanne is a remarkable individual whose expertise in child care is exceptional. Her dedication, skill, and compassionate approach make her an outstanding candidate for any position involving the care and development of children. I wholeheartedly recommend her without any reservations and am confident that she will be an asset to any family or organization fortunate enough to work with her

I would recommend Delia to any family. She was great was both of my girls (20 months & 5 yo). She arrived on time and asked the right questions about care of the children. I would definitely hire her again.

.Hi! My name is Cathy. I am a young-looking and young-acting retired special education teacher . I really miss the kids. I had been an honorary grandmother to a little girl and watched her one day a week from birth to kindergarten. I played with her both inside - playing board games/Legos/card games/Play-Doh, baked, did arts and crafts, watched Disney /educational videos and outside - going to the park,library, playground, children's museums, aquarium, beach. I have experience with infants and have taught grade ranges Kindergarten through high school. I am very friendly, responsible, caring, kind, cheerful, and hard-working. I have watched a 7 year old girl and 9 year old boy for almost a year until they moved , helping them with homework, playing outdoors, and going to parks, the zoo, movies, and kid's fun places. I have taken care of and nurtured a toddler from the time she was 3 months old until 2 years of age. We went on daily outings to the park, library, and children's museum. I have kept a daily journal for parents to enhance communication. I have had several dogs ( golden retrievers) and am pet-friendly. I am very hard-working, reliable, friendly, kind, supportive, and loyal.

Cathy is an amazing care taker for my son. She understands his needs and is very attention to detail with communication and with all of the activities. I highly recommend her. She is prompt and readily available. After her 2 hour interview with both of us chatting away...I felt very comfortable with choosing her.
