About Laurel

Experienced full-time nanny with nearly 5 years of caring for children from newborns to age 5, including multiples and infant nanny shares. Certified in CPR and infant CPR, I'm skilled in baby-led weaning, potty training, sleep training, and supporting colicky newborns. I create and maintain schedules tailored to family needs while fostering a creative, engaging environment with crafts, sensory play, music, and story time. A graduate of Appalachian State University with a degree in Social Work and early childhood education courses, I focus on communication, peer play, and developmental milestones. I'm also experienced in expanding picky eaters' diets and ensuring children thrive physically, emotionally, and socially. Dedicated, reliable, and proactive, I am passionate about helping children grow and develop through creativity, structure, and meaningful connections.
