About Angela

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, I'm Angela, a dedicated and passionate nanny for over 13 years. I've become an expert in infant care and helping families transition into first time parenthood as well as welcoming an addition into an established family routine. I love to come alongside parents; assisting with the adjustment to the constant needs and ever-changing development of a newborn. The first year of a child's life is a great time to prioritize dependable and tailored one on one care. Over the past 13 years I have attended multiple continuing education programs, and combined with my experience, I'm able to provide the thorough and knowledgeable care I offer. I love to guide children in learning through play and exploration of the environments around them; Playing outside, talking about the world we see around us, and taking "field trips" on a regular basis with little ones of all ages. My rates are currently $22-30 depending on my client's needs, number of children, duties, etc.

I trust Angela with our daughter’s life and well being. I have complete peace of mind when our baby is with her. Angela has been our nanny for the better part of a year from the time our daughter was 3 months to over a year old. She is extremely caring and attentive. She is organized, responsive and helped us be better parents. She built much of our daughters sleeping, eating and playing routines. She provided enriching activities including trips to the library, the children’s museum, various parks and play dates with other babies and nannies. She is communicative and let us know about days off, planned vacations etc well in advance. She never missed a day of care without giving us ample notice and rarely was sick. More importantly, Angela is a good person who is like a part of our family. I can’t say enough how much we trust her and quickly she earned that trust by being loving and responsible. We are sad that our baby is losing such a wonderful caregiver. Going into this experience, I had questions about the value of a nanny vs center based child care and I can definitively say that Angela is worth every penny and more. She gave us peace of mind to focus on our jobs knowing that our daughter was always in good hands and loved. I would recommend Angela to anyone seeking extremely high quality care for a child.
