Hi! I'm a certified teacher with a genuine love for children and helping them learn, grow, and feel confident. For the past four years, I've cared for the same family and their twins, now 4, and am looking for a new family due to their relocation. I'm reliable, trustworthy, patient, and kind, with my own transportation. My teaching background gives me a strong understanding of child development, and I love creating a balance of learning and fun through reading, music, outdoor activities, swimming, and creative play. I believe children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and understood. I'm fun and affectionate while also providing the consistency, structure, and age-appropriate boundaries children need. I'm excited to bring my experience, enthusiasm, and love of learning to a new family and hopefully build another lasting relationship!
Kelly has been with our twins since they were 12 weeks old, almost 4 years, and she's family. The boys adore her. She went above and beyond. A former teacher, she guided us through milestones from sleep to potty training, did learning lessons, and took the boys to the library and aquarium. Patient, positive, CPR-trained, and great with daily updates, she also helped with housework and appointments. We're moving overseas, and saying goodbye is so hard. Whichever family gets Kelly will be blessed!
