About Shelby
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello! I have 10 years paid experience working with children, from working in a daycare for 4 years, to babysitting for a handful of families quite regularly, random babysitting jobs, as well as nannying full time for the last two years. I've worked with everything from infants to preteens. On top of that, I come from a family with 7 children total, so I've spent my whole life helping take care of my younger brothers, as well as, my nieces and nephews. I love animals and the outdoors, I am a very caring and hardworking individual, and I am punctual. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

There are no words for how talented, kind, and all-around wonderful Shelby is. Initially, in Dec '19, we hired Shelby as she provided exceptional after-school care for our then-1st grader. She was responsible for picking him up, his care/homework help after school, and also prepped dinner for the kiddos so that we could get them fed upon returning from Daycare/work. Then Covid hit, and Shelby became our saving grace; she took over full-time nannying responsibilities for our three children. She nurtured our youngest from full-on baby to an active, toileting, talking/learning toddler; she helped our middle child transition from a toddler into a preschooler -- learning her letters and how to read and working on age-appropriate math projects; she supported our 2nd grader through remote learning. She is punctual, patient, empathetic, kind, and just always supportive and nurturing to our children. To my husband and I she is our rock who we trust with anything/everything. Highly recommend!
