Hello all, My name is Regina. I am an experienced professional nanny, academic instructor, sitter, and tutor with a true passion for childcare, teaching, and helping children and families thrive. I have been working with children for many years and have served as a professional nanny and dance instructor since the age of 17. As a mother myself, I deeply understand the importance of providing trustworthy, reliable, and loving care. My personal experience as a parent strengthens my commitment to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for every child in my care. Last year, I also became the co-founder of The Morgan House Foundation, which was founded by my six-year-old daughter, Morgan. Through this foundation, I volunteer and support organizations that assist homeless youth and families. Professionally, I am highly experienced in balancing the needs of newborns, toddlers, and preschoolers simultaneously, while still giving each child the individual attention Read more they deserve. I specialize in establishing newborn and toddler sleep routines, introducing solid foods, supporting potty training, and building strong cognitive and developmental skills through engaging activities. Beyond providing dependable and trustworthy care, I bring a warm, energetic personality to every family I work with. One of my past employers described me as “a walking ray of sunshine,” because of the positivity and joy I bring into a home. I pride myself on communicating effectively and seamlessly integrating as part of a family’s team to support their unique needs. I look forward to the opportunity to connect with you soon.
