Our spare time is spent traveling to see our little blessings who call us grandma and papa. Please feel free to reach out and ask for references/resume. I would love to help our your family.

You don't need to look any further...you have found the sitter for you! Shona has been a mentor, teacher, and "second" mom to my 4 daughters. She sincerely and genuinely cares for people, especially children, and their well-being. Shona was born to be a caregiver. She has great insight and wonderful counsel. Her intuitiveness was a blessing when my child was having a difficult day. I was always so thankful for her compassion!

I’m a retired mother age 55 that has raised 3 beautiful, successful children. I just ended a 3 yr. Nanny position for 2 children ages 5 & 11. I started when the little guy was 2 yrs old. I changed diapers, made bottles, successfully potty trained in him in one week. During the school year I came early, helped get them up, made breakfast & drove them to school. Pick up after school & care for them til 5pm. During the Summers, I babysit 5 days a week, 9 hours a day. I drove the children to and from all extracurricular activities including sports. I am a hands on Nanny. We played games, went swimming, went to the movies, the zoo, parks, water parks. You name it I do it! I have grown to love that family very much!!. But as the children are in school full time I am ready for my next journey with your family. I have my own clean, safe car & I am good with pets. I am available on Tuesdays & Thursdays 7:30 am to 5pm.

Tina has nannied for our family for almost two and a half years. My kids are 4 and 11 years old. The kids love her and she keeps them busy interacting with them. My daughter loves her egg sandwiches so much, my daughter will only let Tina make them for her. She is very intentional with how she interacts with the neighbors and their kids, so not to upset anyone. She has brought my kids to multiple recurring activities (sports, summer camps) including school (Drop-off and pickup). She truly cares for them as if they were her own.
