I truly love being a nanny and sitter because caring for children has always been a natural part of who I am. I find joy in creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids can grow, explore, and feel supported. Every child is unique, and I value the chance to bring out their creativity, confidence, and curiosity through play, learning, and consistency. I have decades of hands-on experience raising my own children as well as working with families in the U.S. and abroad. Over the years, I have cared for children of all ages from newborns and toddlers to school aged kids and teens with an emphasis on patience, positive communication, and encouragement. I understand the balance between structure and fun, and I know how to adapt to each family’s needs.

Barbara was absolutely amazing with our 2-year-old while we were on vacation! She was warm, patient, and incredibly engaging — our son adored her from the start. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Barbara went above and beyond to keep him happy, entertained, and comfortable in a new environment. We can’t recommend her highly enough and would love to have her watch him again anytime!

Hi! My name is Rachel and I am a very friendly, warm, and fun person. I love kids and have had 5 years of experience with all different ages- some with special needs. I have had experience with infants all the way up to 9 years of age! I truly love them all and I love their curiosity. I love pets, have my own car, do not smoke, would love to entertain your kids, help with homework, run errands, go grocery shopping, and keep up with some light housekeeping. I am very responsible, dependable, and organized. Looking forward to meeting you :)

Thank you for considering me for your family/home~ I’m excited to connect on how I can support your family specifically! I’m passionate about supporting children in exuding their innate intelligence, and fostering interdependence where children feel safe, seen, and empowered to explore themselves & the world. Choosing me: you’ll welcome a learner-led Educator and artist/ designer, with 6 years of experience working with children of various ages and children with special needs. After working in a variety of childcare environments—Preschool, Montessori, Daycare, High School, Park Districts, Therapeutic School, Forest School, Community Programs—& with taking my own time away from traditional structures, I’ve come to understand that to truly teach kids agency, we must model it ourselves. I focus on emotional development, connection over correction, supporting intrinsic motivation, and honoring unique learning styles with personalized goal activities. I work great with: ✧ divergent-minded children who thrive with encouragement & understanding ✧ families who value creativity, play, and connection to nature as foundational for growth ✧ those interested in embracing organic learning rhythms and who are open to adjustments to support particular difficulties & challenges ✧ families who wish to focus on strengths & capability and who hold an experimental lens to life Please reach out 😊
