Caring for children is the best job in the world! I've been nurturing kids for 35+ years & have extensive experience with all ages. I started out working in day cares while in college. I earned my BA in Elem. Ed. with a concentration in Social and Behavioral Sciences, and later completed my MEd. After teaching for 20+ years, & raising three great kids of my own, I became a nanny for 2 physicians with 3 kids ages 2-13. I was with them for 5 years. I moved to MD for 3 years where I worked for another dual physician couple. Their son was 13 months when I started and I also helped them as they welcomed their daughter who just turned 2. Since July, I've been employed full time by another wonderful couple in Louisville. They have a beautiful baby who is currently 8 months old. I'm looking for part-time work in the late afternoons/early evenings and/or possibly some weekends. If interested in discussing further, please reach out. Thank you.

Susan has been an invaluable member of our family for the past 3 years as our nanny, providing exceptional care to our 2 young children. Susan creates a nurturing and stimulating environment, while at all times, making sure our kids are, safe. Whether it was engaging in feeding/meal time, imaginative play, arts and crafts projects, reading, or exploring nature outdoors, Susan always ensured that our children were actively learning and happy. Susan went above and beyond by purchasing age appropriate toys, crafts, activity books, etc, and regularly went to the local library to supplement our bookshelves with a rotation of new and exciting books, to ensure the children were always stimulated. Susan consistently exhibited professionalism, reliability, and adaptability. We have complete trust in her, and she has ALWAYS been dependable. She is attentive, and always engaged with the kids. Further, she maintains open and effective communication with us. She regularly asked questions and initiated conversations to ensure that our wishes regarding rearing, discipline, behavior, and routines were all being executed to our liking. She kept routines, and helped our family develop healthy habits. She arrives on time to work, and is reliable with keeping children’s appointments, class schedules, and school schedules. Susan has also demonstrated flexibility in accommodating our family's changing needs and schedules. She was particularly exceptional around the birth of our 2nd child, and was a critical member in our support system during the post-partum months. I recommend Susan K. highly. We are filled with gratitude for the time we've shared with Susan and we will miss her dearly.
