About Joan
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
As a retired Pediatric Occupational Therapist and a natural-born caregiver, I have dedicated my life to nurturing and educating children. My passion for fostering their growth and development has been fueled by a desire to make a positive impact on their lives. My patient, creative, and friendly nature allows me to connect easily with children. I prioritize open communication with parents, ensuring they receive regular updates about their child's day and any concerns that arise. I am also comfortable enforcing household rules as guided by the parents. My diverse skill set includes extensive experience with newborns and infants. I will keep your child busy with outdoor sports, educational games, arts and crafts and I'm more than happy to help them with their homework. I strive to provide a well-rounded experience that fosters learning and fun while discouraging electronic use. I am happy to provide excellent resources upon request.

Joanie has been nannying for my twins since they were 6 months old (they just turned 4 in Feb). She has become part of our family and I can’t say enough about her. My kids adore her. She does so much with them and basically runs school and a gym at my house. She is reliable and responsible. We absolutely love her!!
