I have 15 years of experience in child care. I have cared for newborns to preteens. I am punctual, patient, and energetic. I have a love for children and enjoy caring for them. Because I'm a mother myself, I know how important it is for parents to know they have quality child care. Your children will be in trustworthy hands. I will provide loving care to your children as if they were my own. In addition to being a private nanny/sitter, I worked in a daycare and at a music school bringing the love of music to children. I love to read to children and sing. I like talking with babies to help them develop a strong vocabulary. I have also helped prepare children for Pre-K by potty training them and teaching the alphabet and counting. The children's parents who I have cared for will be happy to speak with you on my behalf, and they will tell you that their children were happy, loved, and, most importantly, safe in my care. I am looking for a loving, caring family that I could feel a part of.

Nelly was a nanny for our twin boys for over 2 years. She took care of them from the time they were 10 weeks old until almost 2.5 years old. I can't say enough about how much we love Nelly. She was nurturing and caring when the boys were babies and then she she was very engaging with them as they grew older - keeping them busy and engaging them in different activities. I trusted Nelly from the very beginning and often relied on her for some advice (as I was a first time Mom and she already has 2 girls of her own). She always knew what to do and is very experienced on providing the right kind of care to babies and toddlers. Another quality I really appreciated in Nelly was her dependability, she was never late and often was even a little bit early to care for the boys. This punctuality was important for my husband and I as we knew we could depend on her to be on time so we could get to work. Nelly is very patient and loving and never seemed to take the 'easy way out' when caring for our kids. She made sure they always had what they needed and were cared for in the best way possible. She is very active and enjoyed spending time outside and at activities whenever possible with the boys. Nelly drove the boys to different activities and also was comfortable with our big dog in the house. We moved to a new house recently which is the only reason we had to say goodbye to Nelly. She was an important part of our family and I know our boys will miss her dearly. Any new family she works for will be very lucky to have her!
