Experience: 20 yrs
For over 20 years, I've been dedicated to nurturing children's growth and providing families with dependable care, especially during the summer. My graduate degree, combined with certifications in First Aid Training, CPR Training, Early Childhood Education (ECE), Child Development Associate (CDA), and Early Child Development coursework, has equipped me with a strong foundation in child development. I'm patient, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy engaging children with outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I'm very comfortable upholding household rules. I communicate with parents through daily reports, verbal updates, and texts. I'm happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I can comfortably care for three children. I find immense joy in seeing the world through a child's eyes, and I hope to bring that joy to your family.
Kelly was with our family for over five years, starting during the COVID lockdowns, and quickly became so much more than a nanny — she was a teacher, mentor, and huge part of our kids’ lives. Our two boys have unique learning needs (one with autism, one with ADHD), and Kelly handled it all with incredible patience, creativity, and dedication. She helped both kids learn to read, kept them on track during remote school, and made learning fun with games and hands-on activities. She was just as comfortable helping with schoolwork as she was jumping into a game of tag or swimming with them. Kelly has a real instinct for teaching and knows how to connect with kids. She’s supportive, dependable, and truly cared about our children’s growth — academically, emotionally, and socially. Any family would be lucky to have her
