I am an experienced babysitter / nanny. I have great ratings from the families I have worked with and am willing to give references. I have strong and caring relationships with the families I have worked with and continue to babysit for them when they need me. I am currently a nanny of a 15-month-old and worked with the family since he was 8 months old. I have over 10 years experience working with infants, toddlers and kids of all ages. I have two children of my own, one special needs, and I am comfortable working with typical children as well as children with disabilities. I believe children are a joy. They are innocent beings that are growing and developing into a special person. It takes love and nurture, which I am able to provide. I Engage in age appropriate toys / activities which only helps their ability to thrive. I follow any instructions given and continue to warm and safe environment for that child.
We are so grateful for Brenda’s outstanding care with our son (from 6–22 months). Brenda is exceptionally punctual and consistently reliable—she never missed a day, providing us with invaluable peace of mind and stability as working parents. Brenda’s patience and gentle, reassuring presence guided our child through challenging phases, especially moments of separation anxiety and everyday toddler hurdles. She handled these situations with remarkable calmness, care, and kindness, always ensuring our son felt secure and comforted. Brenda’s genuine affection for children shines through in every interaction. Her clear and open communication was a huge plus—she kept us updated with thoughtful messages, photos, and any notes on developmental milestones. We always felt informed and connected. Beyond caregiving, Brenda is proactive and resourceful about supporting child development: she researches appropriate activities, introduces new skills at the right stage, and thoughtfully plans engaging play to foster learning and growth in a fun, educational environment. With toddlers not able to clearly describe what they are going through, her ability to recognize and understand toddler behavior is amazing. We highly recommend Brenda to any family seeking a professional and loving caregiver. Our son thrived under her attentive care, and we truly could not have asked for anyone better! We will be happy to provide a reference and answer any questions a family might have about Brenda and our experience with her. Brenda has become a cherished part of our family, and the positive impact she’s had on our son's happiness and development will stay with us always. If you are considering Brenda for your family, rest assured your child will be loved, supported, and cared for by someone truly special. We feel extremely fortunate to have found her and could not recommend Brenda more highly.
