About Debra

Experience: 19 yrs

I am a professional nanny/family assistant/household manager with a "can do" attitude and a real love for children and people. After my first career, 25 years in the restaurant industry, I now have a secondary career path - caring for children and their families! I am grateful for this career change and I show it by interacting with children with joy and genuine understanding. I have been a nanny for many sorts of families over the past 19 years. I have a daughter, age 29, who recently had her first baby. They are the light of my life and my family life is precious to me - and I know yours is as well. I am here to help you maximize your family time and be a true mentor, teacher, and friend to your children. In addition to childcare, I love helping via being a family assistant and household manager.

Debi has cared for my daughters, now 2 and 4.5, for nearly 2 years. She easily established a strong rapport with my family and continues to provide compassionate and reliable care. She keeps our home calm and tidy without sacrificing her attention to our girls. Consistently, Debi has demonstrated a knack for adapting to the developmental stage and daily mood of our daughters. She is quick to discern how to foster cooperation and harmony. She is extraordinarily patient, with great skill using distraction, humor, and age-appropriate reasoning. She is able to set caring, firm boundaries that are aligned with our parenting style. It's easy to communicate with Debi. She is truly professional and thoughtful about how her decisions impact my family. She is responsive to feedback and tries to ensure that we always maintain a shared understanding. Debi has been a wonderful asset to our family. I trust her completely and believe her to be a person with great integrity and a warm heart.
