About Candy
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello! I am a dependable, patient, and nurturing caregiver with a background in education and hands-on experience with children of all ages. I was a nanny for a little boy from infancy through age 3, two girls from infancy to ages 2 & 4, and I have also raised three children of my own and help care for my grandchildren. I'm very comfortable with everything from infant care and routines to supporting school-age children with homework and after-school structure. I love engaging with children-whether that's playtime, reading, getting outside, or helping them feel confident and successful. I bring a calm, organized presence and truly enjoy creating a safe, positive environment for kids to grow and thrive. I'm happy to help with school pickup, preparing snacks or meals, and keeping children on track with routines in a supportive and encouraging way. I have a reliable car, am a non-smoker, and would love to connect to learn more about your family's needs.

Candy was always on time and was great with our son. The two of them hit it off and got along so well. She was always thoughtful and made sure to do things with him that she knows he likes.
