Brianna E., Nanny in Acton, MA 01720 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi, I’m Brianna! I’m 28 and have 8 years of experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I began as a toddler teacher at Bright Horizons in 2017 and later transitioned to working full-time with private families. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and Early Childhood Education certified. Families know me as reliable, patient, and compassionate. Outside of childcare, I enjoy traveling, pilates, painting, and spending time with my 3-year-old pup, Polo. I have strong references and a résumé available upon request, and I’d love to connect to discuss how I can support your family.

I have been a full time nanny for the past 11 years. My experience over these years has been with new born thru school age children. In my care for two years were new born twins (boys & girl). My duties included, but were not limited to, driving the children to school and extra actives, events, host play days, visiting the park and library. I love activities outside and indoor games, puzzles, arts & crafts, story time, etc. I take care of the children's laundry and meals, organize kids room and toys, grocery shopping and errand.

Keely S., Nanny in Acton, MA 01720 with 20 years of paid experience

Here is a little bit about me. *Self-description* I am spunky, fun and dependable. I enjoy doing crafts and playing games. I also take joy in playgrounds, riding bikes, swimming, the library, and other fun things! I feel I would be a great companion for your child. *Additional information* I began an interest in caring for children when I was 13. I would babysit for families in the neighborhood. As I entered high school they had a day care in one of the wings. I began working there for credit.  From that point on I have always had a job working with children *Challenges of position* I have been with one of my families for 10 years, and I find that as they get older the respect level and listening skills decrease a little bit. It makes it difficult for me implement the rules of the house, so I have to be creative in my methods. *Rewards of position* It is a good feeling knowing that I am an important part in a child's life. Being able to watch them grow and help them with life decisions means a great deal to me.

Laura P., Nanny in Acton, MA 01720 with 30 years of paid experience

I have been taking care of children for most of my life, starting with younger siblings and eventually moving on to neighbors and finally, when I was old enough to drive, branching out to families all over town and in several other towns. I worked at a child care center for two years after graduating high school. I have experience with children of all ages, newborns to preteens, and have taken care of twins, triplets, and children with special needs. I've done overnights, vacations, and weekends away with families, I have taken care of children from multiple families at once (up to eight), and I've gone along on all types of outings just to be an extra set of hands. I really, truly enjoy spending time with children whether we're on an outdoor adventure together, snuggled up reading a book, or talking to each other in silly voices. I have thirty years of experience, I am reliable, trustworthy, and have many great references. Hopefully you'll consider letting me be a part of your child's life.
