First, I love new babies. I'm a grandma who has fully adapted to the new methods of infant care. Of course, I have taken care of my grandchildren from birth and also I was a Nanny for an infant. My strong point is being able to see what the baby needs, even if that means just holding the baby. I am not a believer in letting the infant cry it out. If the baby is crying it usually means something from a belly ache or just wanting to be held close. The fourth trimester which of course is the new baby can be a trying time for first-time parents. I live in Ellicott City, close to downtown OEC.

We used Terry to care for our son for 2 years from 12 weeks old until 2 years. She was a vital part in his development and cared for him like a grandson. She is meticulous about caring for them emotionally and physically. She loves to play games and be silly even with infants. My son cried whenever he had to leave her. We are sad that we won't be able to use her anymore due to a move.
