About Kelly

Kelly has been with our family for the past 10 months, caring for our son since he was just 6 months old. We have three kids, are two working parents, occasionally travel for work, and have a schedule that seems to change constantly, so having someone we can genuinely count on has been incredibly important to us. Kelly has been that person. What stands out most to me is that she doesn’t just come in and “watch the baby.” She pays attention to him. As he’s grown and changed, she’s taken an interest in figuring out what he needs at each stage. She’ll bring over or suggest a new sensory toy or activity because she thinks he’s ready for it, work with him on whatever milestone he’s tackling, and look for things they can do outside the house. She takes him for walks or to the park almost every day and has even researched things like library music and story times that they could do together. She also notices the little things. If he suddenly isn’t eating as much, his naps start changing, or something just seems a little off, she brings it up. I’ve really appreciated that, especially since he’s gone through so many changes during his first year - teething, growth spurts, transitioning to a bottle, crawling to walking... the list goes on! Another big thing for our family has been Kelly’s flexibility. Our schedule isn’t always predictable, and over the past year we’ve had plenty of days where plans changed or we needed to adjust things. She has consistently been easy to communicate with and willing to work with us, which has made our lives so much easier. We are sadly moving on from having a nanny, simply because we now have three kiddos headed to three different schools/programs, and financially and logistically it makes more sense for our family. We’ve been extremely happy with Kelly and would keep her if our family circumstances weren’t changing. I would absolutely recommend Kelly to a family looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and truly engaged with their child (or children! She is amazing with our other two kids as well and has occasionally watched all three together). More than anything, I trust Kelly with our son. He is SO happy to see her when she arrives, and it’s obvious that she cares about him too. She has been such an important part of his first year, and we are really going to miss having her here. For me, that says a lot more than anything else I could put in a review. <3
