About Dorothy

Experience: 20 yrs

Nurturing children and supporting families has been my professional focus for over 30 years. My early coursework in Early Child Development provided a strong foundation for my work, and I hold current CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications. I am patient, creative, and thrive on building genuine connections with the children in my care. Whether we are playing board games, engaging in outdoor activities, or working on educational crafts, I love fostering a positive environment. I am highly comfortable enforcing household rules and am happy to assist with meal preparation, light housekeeping and cleaning up after your child. I prioritize clear communication, providing daily updates through your preferred method. As a skilled swimmer, I am always ready to provide active supervision during water play. I am very comfortable with pets and welcoming your pets into the daily routine. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted nanny in your family's life.

It is clear that Dorothy loves children and she was an absolutely fantastic baby sitter! I hired Dorothy when I needed weekly help with my 3 month old son. She was extremely reliable and always on time. I really appreciated how she would follow up with me with a quick text to see how things were going with my son after her visits. She was in tune with my baby's needs and knew immediately how to respond. As a first time mom myself, Dorothy was open to sharing tips to help me with my little one when I asked her while always respecting and following my directions. Dorothy displayed confidence and genuine enjoyment when caring for my son. I always felt confident and comfortable leaving him with her. I knew he would be safe and have a great time. I am moving out of state and wish I could bring Dorothy with us!
