Hi, my name is Shaina and I am a professional nanny looking for my next family! I like to think of myself as a partner in parenting, someone who becomes a part of the family while gently offering support and advice to parents based on years of experience and training. I have been working as a full-time nanny for over ten years, with six different families. My youngest charge was 8 weeks when I started, and I generally prefer to start before 6 months so we really get that great bond. I love to get out and about with my babies; though Covid has nixed all indoor activities for the moment, I love getting outside for walks and playing in parks or other grassy spaces as much as possible! When things start opening up again, I will fill our days with playgroups, music classes, and story times. I will be Read more getting my vaccine as soon as possible and prefer to work with a like-minded family. I have experience with all ages, with medically complex children (needing oxygen or medications or Early Intervention), and with some behavioral issues as well. I'm a huge advocate of safe, evidenced based sleep and baby care and know all the best ways to sleep train and feed/wean babies. I have great references and can provide those in letter form upon request. I look forward to hearing from you?
