About Nicole

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi my name is Nicole/Nicki and I seriously love hanging out with the children. They are so full of amazing energy and such a joy to be around. I am passionate about children because you can learn a lot from them, like how to enjoy the simple things in life. I love working with children and getting to know their individual personalities. I also enjoy watching children grow and learn, helping them as they face new challenges in school and life in general. I believe my patience, creativity, and strong understanding of child development make me a good nanny. I got my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have been working with children for the past 33 years with 7 families in the position of babysitter, nanny, and during high school school years swim instructor. I have worked with all ages from newborn to 14 years old. I am a proud stepmom to 3 daughter and 3 grandchildren.

Nicole has been one of the most loving and influential people to my children as our nanny the last 7 years. She gave the girls patience even on through their tired and overwhelmed breakdowns as they grew. She played games with them, did crafts with them, and supported them through every special moment even on her days off. She was completely dedicated to them as she consistently worked 45-60 hours a week. My husband has a disability so even as the girls grew older, Nicole stepped in to manage other things around the house while I was at work and the girls were at school. She would cook, clean and run errands to keep the house running well. I can’t tell you how many times we sat down and cleared out baby clothes, old toys, donations, etc. as she helped me organize my life. It was her and I who have essentially packed everything and moved twice in that seven years which is no small feat considering the household goods, livestock, and farm equipment that had to be organized and transported through months of organization and work. She lived with us during COVID as I still went to work and both my children were required to complete their lessons at home online. She put in countless hours being their primary educator and communicating with their teachers to make sure they were successful during that time. There is nothing in this world that she isn’t capable of as she brings joy and kindness to those you love and care most about. Her loyalty and consistency is unwavering. She attended trips with us when the babies were little then house sat and loved our animals as the years went on. In all seven years, Nicole called in one time due to a death in the family and was late maybe twice. My entire family and set of friends came to know and trust her and in turn would ask her for help with their needs as well. She has help run birthday parties, babysit the girl’s friends, take care of animals and help in other family businesses. If you want someone that is honest, loving, kind and the most consistently hard working person you will ever meet, then Nicole is who you want. She was the biggest blessing I have been graced with over the years and I am devastated to say goodbye to her now as changes in my husbands health require drastic lifestyle changes for us. Nicole is without a doubt the only reason we have made it through the trials in our family over these years. I would not have survived without her friendship and support. She will forever be a confidant and close friend to me and my family.
