Hi there! I am a mom of a 4.5 year old girl, have been nannying and babysitting for the past 3 years full time and I am also a licensed art educator. I have worked with kids of all ages and am 39 years old so I’ve been around a long time and know exactly how to handle any situation that may arise. I am a kid at heart as well and love to engage in play, art making, nature, and general fun :). I have been in many homes and can easily learn the way you and your family and home operate. If I’m nannying, my 4.5 year old can come with me and she makes a great play mate. If I’m babysitting at night she would not be with me. She is in preschool and will be in kindergarten next year so she will be in school during Read more school hours. I am a nature enthusiast and know a lot about plants and animals and I am always down to do crafts! I am passionate about getting to know each child individually and help them thrive. I will follow all of your routines and keep things as seamless as possible. I am kind, compassionate, emotionally intelligent, fun, and practice gentle parenting but have firm boundaries and do not practice permissive parenting. I am fond of turning things into a game or a song to make things go smoothly. I have worked in public school and a nature homeschool program and have worked with babies through high school. I understand being nervous about leaving your child with someone else and can assure you that I’d feel safe and comfortable leaving my daughter in the hands of someone like myself. I have formed deep friendships with the kids and families I have worked with over the years and they would be happy to speak with you if you need a reference! I hope to meet you and your beautiful family some day and to help take care of the most precious person in your life.

Julia Nannied and babysat for our family for a year. She was excellent with our two girls. Our youngest was 2 and our oldest was 5 when Julia started. Our youngest is almost 4 and our oldest almost 7. Julia is highly reliable and responsive always showing up on time and confirming the details in advance. She’s very responsible and extremely fun and creative with our kids and in facilitating and supervising play. She was also flexible willing to adjust times, days, pick up and drop off plans etc to meet our needs. Julia is also a very kind and interesting person and my husband and I always enjoy our time chatting with Julia. I would highly recommend her as a nanny or babysitter!

Julia took care of my daughter from age 2-3, and my girl still considers Julia one of her best friends. Julia is loving, committed, responsible, and communicative. She truly enjoys and respects children, is great at playing and doing art projects with them, takes them outside as much as possible, and sets boundaries with remarkable gentleness and confidence. She’s a free spirit but very much understands and respects parents’ preferences and boundaries too. Our daughter is in school now but we still hire Julia for breaks. I also consider her a trusted friend now.
