We were so incredibly lucky to have Nikole care for our infant son. From day one, she was attentive, gentle, and completely trustworthy. She handled feedings, naps, and playtime with so much care and confidence, which gave us real peace of mind. She was always punctual, communicative, and truly engaged with our son — not just watching him, but interacting, comforting, and helping him grow. It was clear how patient and nurturing she is, and our son was always calm and happy in her care. We highly recommend Nikole to anyone looking for a reliable, loving, and capable nanny, especially for infants/toddlers.

Hi! I’m Inyene, but you can also call me Kate! I have been blessed to support children of all ages, from fragile newborns to extraordinary youth with special needs, and I deeply understand the immense patience, endurance, and grace that childcare demands. As a creative writer and someone who has worked in child and youth development, I bring a unique blend of energy, patience, and over 10 years of experience to caregiving. I am fully committed to protecting, listening to, and nurturing the unique capabilities within every child, including organizing age-appropriate fun and entertaining activities to excite and boost learning and social-cognitive skills. Personally, I am a grounded, reliable, punctual, kind, and deeply empathetic person. I don't drink or smoke and have a clean driving record. I am naturally patient, enthusiastic, active, and highly creative, finding joy in small things. In my free time, I enjoy writing, trying new recipes or organizing. When I am babysitting, this translates into me being a very hands-on caregiver. Instead of putting on a movie, I may set up arts-and-crafts projects, read together, try a writing prompt, play imaginative games outside, or follow a strict bedtime routine; I am highly organized and adaptable to your family's needs. Finally, I have no allergies and will treat your furry companions with the utmost love and care! It'll be a pleasure to work with your beautiful family.

Inyene was so lovely with our 3.5 month old son. She watched him for a Friday and Saturday evening while we attended a wedding. Inyene got our son down to sleep easily and he slept better than he does at home! She was very communicative and kind. Thank you, Inyene!

Hi! My name is Gigi and I am a nursing student at Southern Connecticut State University. My deep love for children initially sparked my desire to pursue a career as a pediatric nurse. The thought of being able to make a positive impact on their lives during their formative years is incredibly rewarding to me. I currently work as a CNA with elders I love my job and I love having the ability to take care of those who are in need. I also speak Spanish & English.

Jazmin is an 100 out of 10. She came through for our family very last minute - is super reliable, smart, and fun. Our 4 year old and 1 year old adored her. She's fantastic with kids, dogs, and stressed out adults :). We would absolutely have her sit again and can't recommend her enough.

I love working with children their inquisitive attitudes and loads of energy make them a joy to be around. Taking care of children has been my passion. Allowing children to grow, explore and learn is a rewarding experience that keeps me excited as I continue caring for children of all ages. Learning through exploration, art, reading, nature, and outdoor observations offers children a rich experience. Nurturing each child’s interests helps them become strong solid people who respect themselves.
