I am a 31-year-old college graduate and I have been a nanny for the past 7 years. I am a certified babysitter and CPR/First Aid certified through the Red Cross. I live with my husband, 6-month-old son, 2 cats and dog. I am known for being extremely loyal, responsible and a fun loving person! Since becoming a mom I have learned even more and I love every minute of it. I have recent experience helping out a friend with her 2-year-old son part time, while also bringing my son along. It has worked out great! I worked for a family for 5 years and started when their boy was an infant. It was the best job I've ever had and I have learned so much through each stage of his life. The experience caring for multiple children has shown me the different behaviors of children and has prepared me for any type of behavior in any given situation. My natural love for children and understanding of the many needs of them makes me a great nanny/sitter in both the eyes of the parents and children.

Kelsey is a phenomenal nanny and wonderful person! She has taken care of my son since he was 3 months old (since February 2017) and for the last four years has enriched his life through play, learning, interesting/new experiences, socialization and lots of love. Kelsey excels at teaching children through example and using positive reinforcement to keep them on track. She is very patient and tries to incorporate fun throughout the day (she's learned all the transformers names so she can play with my son) while still staying on schedule. Kelsey is very reliable and flexible - she added time to her commute without missing a beat when we moved down to the shoreline a couple years ago. Now that my son is preparing for Kindergarten, Kelsey has transitioned from full time to a couple days a week - my son by far prefers the days Kelsey is here versus preschool :) While we're sad to see Kelsey move on when our son goes full-time in the Fall, we know she'll make another lucky family very happy.
