About Opal
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I'm Opal. As the eldest in a lively family of five, I've always been passionate about caring for children. With well over a decade of experience as a camp group leader, pre-school, daycare assistant, and as a nanny, I specialize in crafting safe, engaging, and educational settings for children. My background in music as a professional singer, songwriter, and guitarist adds a creative touch to my childcare. I'm dedicated to fostering emotional and social growth through activities, homework assistance, and routine maintenance. Though I don't rely solely on care. com for positions, I am highly recommended for my reliability and dedication, and I can provide references. I'd love to bring my positivity, warm smile, and genuine love for children to your family. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to know more!

Opal is awesome. She has been with our family for over a year and she has been absolutely incredible. She was very kind, patient and engaging with our daughters. Her expertise with young children was evident, and she provided just the right amount of updates to keep us in the loop while we were away at work. An added benefit of hiring Opal is she takes great pics! We have lovely pictures of our daughters which look like they were taken by a professional photographer. My wife and I felt very comfortable with her. Our two daughters have had many caregivers and Opal is their very favorite. Her intuition with children is awesome. I always know that they are getting the best of care when they are with her and that they are having a BLAST! We would have wanted to have her for as long as she could be here. She's just what you are looking for. Opal really is absolutely incredible and we are jealous of whatever family is able to work with her next. We will miss you Opal!
