Currently, I have a wonderful family I nanny for midweek but I'm available to help for date nights. A little about me: Growing up in Oregon, I helped raise my 4 siblings which taught me a lot of patience and helped develop my nurturing instincts. Also being raised without a TV helped me develop endless creative projects for my siblings. I even taught them how to read before preschool! Over the past 20 years I've been a part time nanny for several families, and I adore working with children! Every day is a new opportunity to teach, inspire and help them develop empathy for others. I think that each generation is more and more inundated with devices, so I try to keep tv and video games etc. to a minimum. I help kids enjoy exploring outside, reading, art projects and learning how to communicate their thoughts and feelings in a healthy way. I also have first hand experience working with neurodivergent and non-verbal children and am compassionate toward all temperaments and ages.

I honestly don't even know where to start. I never thought I would get so lucky to find a person like Tacey Tacey has been an absolute blessing for our family, and especially for our son, Liam. From day one, she has gone above and beyond to ensure that Liam is not only well cared for, but also engaged, nurtured, and loved like he is her own child. Her creativity and thoughtfulness shine through in the amazing activities she plans for Liam. Whether it's trips to the library to foster a love for books, walks in the park that spark his curiosity about nature, or exciting visits to the zoo where he gets to learn about animals firsthand, she makes every day a new adventure. I’ve noticed how much Liam has flourished under her care – his vocabulary has expanded, his social skills are growing, and he’s always so happy and eager to tell me about the wonderful experiences he’s had with her. What stands out the most is how deeply she respects and values our family’s choices, routines, and philosophy. She is always in tune with what we want for Liam’s development, making sure that everything she does aligns perfectly with our family values. She is incredibly respectful of our wishes, and at the same time, her warm and nurturing approach makes it clear that she is fully invested in Liam’s well-being. Liam always leaves his time with her with a big smile, a heart full of joy, and a new thing to talk about. It’s such a comfort to know that while we’re away, he’s in the most loving, safe, and enriching environment possible. We truly feel like we’ve found a second family in her. She is more than a nanny – she is our sons comfort when we are away, and we are so grateful for everything she does for Liam. If you're looking for someone who will take extraordinary care of your child, nurture their growth, and respect your family's values – literally do not look further She is truly exceptional, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have her in Liam's life.
