Hello! My name is Dee (DeeDee to the kiddos) and I am a nanny specializing in helping new parents with the exhausting, exciting, "what have we gotten ourselves into" transition to family life. I have 3+ years as a professional nanny, 24 years as the crazy/fun aunt and 25 as mother to the most amazing daughter. For recurring assignments, I limit my practice to 1:1 care. Caring for one child allows me to focus on the baby's patterns, nurturing needs and milestones achievement. It also allows me to work closely with the parent(s) as questions arise... and they will. For one-time assignments, I will care for 2 children since those assignments are focused on fun and care without the educational goals associated with recurring care. I currently have 4 children in my one-time rotation (4-year-old girl, 2-year-old girl, 1-year-old girl and 10-month-old boy). I look forward to speaking with you about your little human.

Dee is consistent, reliable and caring. She demonstrates an authentic passion for child (and adult!) behavior, is patient and understanding, and has formed a special bond with our 10mo old. We feel very comfortable leaving our home for the day with our child in very capable hands.
