Hello! My name is Violet, and I have 7 years of childcare experience. I have been a nanny exclusively for about 2 years and have cared for kids of all ages, although my "specialty" is with younger ones! I love caring for infants, as I am studying to become a doula with future goals of becoming an ultrasound technician. I show up every day with an open mind, empathy, patience, and a smile. I love to connect with everyone in the family. I also know a lot of baby sign because I am learning ASL, which can really help those younger ones greatly with their language skills!

My name is Jenny, I'm from Europe and I graduated from law school. This is my third year caring for children aged 0-10. I have more experience back in my country as I have constantly had to take care of children. I am very patient and sensitive to the needs of a child, I am organized and I always try to offer my best. Flexible with schedule and highly collaborative. I love being in an environment with children. I enjoy spending time with them but at the same time I am very responsible for their safety, well-being and entertainment. In my previous experiences I have also assisted with household chores or food preparation for the whole family.
