Michelle is our current nanny and has cared for our 3 girls for the last 1.5 years. They’re young and can be a lot to handle at times. The girls love her and they look forward to when she is coming. She’s a very thorough communicator and goes over what they did every day. I highly recommend Michelle for any nanny needs.

I have been a nanny, babysitter, and family manager for over 10 years, working with kids of all ages ranging from 3 months-12 years old. I am a certified Early Childhood/Special Education teacher (PK-2), working at NAEYC accredited child centers, public and private schools. I received my B.S in Child Development with a minor in American Sign Language and my M.S in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. I am also first aid and CPR certified. Growing up, I was a competitive dancer and currently a big kid at heart! I hope you will consider me. Ashley

My name is Jill Patel and I would love to be your next helper! I am a rising junior at the university of pittsburgh where I am majoring in neuroscience and child development. A little bit about me is that I love all kinds of animals, I can speak 4 languages fluently (English, Gujarati, Hindi, French), and I love the outdoors. I has lots of experience with kids since I was a nanny for a 2 year old and an 8 month old, and I have been a tennis coach for 4 years. I adore kids of all ages and love to connect with each of them. They bring a fresh perspective to everything and can brighten up any sad day. Working as a tennis coach with children as young as 3 and adults as old as 60, I have picked up a lot of tips and tricks when it comes to working and engaging with children. I believe that my job has really given me an insight on what goes on their little minds and how I can form a relationship with them. So I’ve encountered any and all situations with kids from ad young as infants and up to high schoolers. I like to approach with a more hands-on approach regarding activities, with limited screen time. I always have lots of games, stories, educative learning, and imagery play ready to go!

Jill is phenomenal. She is very attentive to my rambunctious kindergartner, respectful and above all follows through on what she says she will do, even if it’s not super convenient for her. She is kind, intelligent and personable. I definitely recommend her and plan on keeping her on speed dial.

Hi! I’m an experienced, reliable babysitter with 10+ years of professional nanny experience and 2 years as a German Au Pair living with an American family. I’ve cared for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged, and I’m comfortable managing multiple kids at once. I can help with everything from diaper changes and bedtime routines to homework, meal prep, and fun activities. I’m calm, organized, and happy to tidy up so you can come home to a smooth, settled house. As a parent myself, I understand how important trust is. My goal is simple: happy kids and relaxed parents

I adore Mona. Our family has known her for about 5 years now. Our daughters are best friends (from ages 5 to 9 currently), and I am so glad for that. We trust Mona - she’s smart, caring, generous, thoughtful and intentional. She believes in teaching and allowing kids age appropriate independence. She recognizes and meets kids where they are but also has a lot of fun. Mona is reliable, responsible and a great communicator - she drives my kids to school and takes them on fun adventures. She is artistic, loves animals, enjoys the outdoors, loves to garden and cook, and is very involved and active in her daughter’s school. Finally, I witness and observe how Mona is raising her own daughter. Not only am I incredibly grateful that my kids get the benefit of Mona’s huge heart and genuine care, but I too have grown as a parent from knowing her.

I highly recommend Ashley as a nanny for your family. Over the past 4.5 years, Ashley has been an invaluable member of our household, providing exceptional care for our three children. Her engaging personality, nurturing nature, and impeccable organizational skills make her an ideal candidate for any family seeking a dedicated and reliable childcare provider. First and foremost, Ashley’s ability to connect with children is truly remarkable. She interacts with our children in a way that is both engaging and educational, fostering a sense of curiosity and creativity in them. My children benefited greatly from interactions that involve positive emotions, high levels of engagement, and opportunities for exploration and learning. Ashley embodies all of these qualities in her interactions with our kids and consistently creates an enriching environment for their growth and development. Ashley’s nurturing nature is evident in the way she cares for our kids. She is attentive, patient, and compassionate, always putting the needs and well-being of our children first. Ashley’s ability to create a warm and nurturing environment for our children has been instrumental in their emotional and social development, fostering a sense of security and trust that has helped them flourish. In addition to her innate qualities as a caregiver, Ashley’s organizational skills and preparedness are unmatched. She goes above and beyond to ensure that she is fully prepared for any situation that may arise, whether it be a scheduled activity or an unexpected challenge. Her keen attention to detail and proactive approach have been invaluable to our family, especially during major milestones, especially that what can be dreaded task of potty training. Ashley successfully guided us through this challenging process not once, but twice. I cannot recommend Ashley enough as a nanny for your family. I am confident that Ashley will exceed your expectations and provide your children with the love, care, and support they need to thrive.
