About Dorothy

Hi, I'm Dorothy - a professional Philadelphia nanny offering warm, structured, one-on-one care for infants and young children. I have worked in Holland and England and am fluent in Dutch and German. My style is active, loving, and developmentally intentional. I believe children need more than supervision: they need safety, affection, rest, conversation, movement, fresh air, play, and steady support through each stage. My care may include tummy time, reading, singing, sensory play, outdoor walks, nap support, bottles/meals, diapering, comfort, early learning through play, and age-appropriate social experiences. My experience include infant thru ages 6-8. I'm a native Philadelphian and enjoy using local parks, libraries, storytimes, playgroups, and child-friendly activities when appropriate. I'm a good fit for families who value communication, trust, outdoor time, photo updates, and a clear written agreement. Full background checks and first aid certified
