About Erica

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi, my name is Erica but please call me Ricki! I'm available to work with a new family beginning January, and I'm available for babysitting now. I am a community birth worker/ doula and a nanny. As a nanny I specialize in newborn-kinder, working mostly with infants and toddlers (but I have experience with all ages). I often work with families as they return to work from parental leave, and first time parents. My strengths are working with "littles" who are creative, have high sensory needs, need co-regulation, are tough nappers, and/ or multiples/ siblings. I have previous experience teaching infants - Pre-K at The Goddard School; and aerial arts and yoga to toddlers and preschoolers. I taught comic book writing, yoga, and other extracurriculars to elementary students after school. I'm certified to teach English as a Second Language, and conversational in Spanish. I work with families part time, short term, and/or intermittently.

Ricki was my son’s primary nanny as an infant and again as a primary schooler. She also supported me as a postpartum doula. She is so patient and steady! My son has lots of energy and emotions, and she stays in it with him. He loves her!
