About Holly

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi there! I'm Holly, a certified early childhood Montessori teacher, and newly-trained Newborn Care Specialist. I have 17 years of experience as a teacher and childcare provider, the past 3 as a professional nanny. I have worked with ages ranging from newborn to preteen. I have experience with allergies and special needs. I absolutely love children, especially forming special connections with them over time, and watching them learn and grow. I am often told that I have a very patient and calm personality, but I also love to be silly and have fun! Some of my favorite activities with children include outdoor play, open-ended art, baking, and science experiments. I find much fulfillment in caring for children's basic needs, and I would also love the opportunity to utilize my Montessori background to work with them on numbers, sounds, fine motor skills, etc. I am searching for full time position beginning at the end of summer. Additional references available!

Holly has taken care of my 3 kids for the past 5 years. She was a private teacher for them during Covid and then transitioned to a nanny position. She has kept them overnight as well. She is trustworthy, reliable, respectful of your parenting style, and great with kids. My whole family loves her and I trust her completely!
