About Isabella

My husband and I feel incredibly lucky to have had Izzy as our son's nanny for the past year. She started with our family when our son was 8 months old, and although this was her first full-time nanny position, you truly would never have known it. From day one, Izzy was calm, confident, and so gentle and nurturing with our son. She immediately hit the ground running, handling diapering, bottle and solid feeding, playtime, nap schedules, and meal prep with total ease. As our son grew and his needs changed, Izzy adapted seamlessly. She encouraged and supported him as he became more mobile and curious, adjusted routines when he dropped a nap, and thoughtfully adapted daily activities to support his growing independence. She keeps us updated throughout the day with thoughtful texts about his meals, moods, and milestones, and she always lets us know when she takes him out for walks and when they return - something that gives us immense peace of mind. Izzy has been amazing at supporting our son's development. She taught him baby sign language and has consistently worked with him on both verbal and nonverbal communication. Thanks to Izzy, he learned how to give hugs and kisses to his stuffed animals - and to his family members! She also reinforces important habits like washing up after meals/good hygiene, gentle hands, and picking up toys and putting them away before transitioning to a new activity. Now, our son is an extremely active toddler who rarely sits still, and Izzy continues to match his energy, keeping him stimulated, engaged, and happy. Our son is starting daycare, which is the only reason we are saying goodbye to Izzy. We are going to miss her terribly, but she will always be part of our family and one of our son's people. At the end of the day, all you can ask for in a nanny is someone who genuinely loves your child and celebrates every little quirk and milestone with the same joy you do. Izzy was exactly that for us. Any family lucky enough to have her next will be truly fortunate.
