With over 12 years of experience as a nanny, babysitter, and childcare professional, I am passionate about working with children and supporting their growth. I have also worked as a head preschool teacher and at an elementary school, giving me a well-rounded approach to childcare. I have a BS in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education. I am very hands on and love to keep children engaged with creative activities, crafts, books, and games. I always bring along extra ideas and activities to suit each child’s age and interests. I am patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. When I’m not caregiving I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling all over the world, playing tennis, and curling up to read a good book.

My wife and I feel incredibly lucky to have had Emily as part of our family for over a year. She cared for our two children (that are now ages 3 & 5) with so much warmth, sense of fun, genuine enthusiasm, and professionalism. She was always punctual, extremely reliable, and quick to respond, which gave us peace of mind. What truly set her apart was how hands-on she was with our kids. She regularly came prepared with thoughtful activities like crafts, games, toys, and books. She put so much effort into to making each day fun and enriching. She wasn’t a person to just supervised, she got down on the floor and played with them, stayed active, and built a real connection with our children. Our kids absolutely adored her and we clearly see how much she cared for them. Any family would be lucky to have her, we would recommend her without hesitation.

Hi! I’m Rachel, and I genuinely love helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe, positive environment. I have professional experience working in childcare with infants through school-age children, so I’m comfortable caring for multiple children, managing routines, preparing meals and snacks, assisting with homework, planning engaging activities, and handling bedtime routines. I’m dependable, patient, and calm under pressure, and I believe in creating a caring environment where kids feel safe and supported. I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust, and I treat every child with the same kindness, respect, and attention I would want for my own family. Whether you’re looking for an occasional sitter or a long-term nanny, I’d love the opportunity to support your family! I’m also open to full-time nanny opportunities and would love to build a long-term relationship with a family while providing reliable, consistent care.

I have been a nanny for a family for about 3 to 4 years now. But they are no longer needing my services since the kiddo is growing up. I also have occasionally babysat for other families too. And I grew up watching my siblings and my family’s kids also. I love spending time with kids, doing crafts, puzzles, etc. I am very patient and enjoy building connections with kids. I would love to help out and make it easier for families.
