About Keriann

Experience: 5 yrs

Please note: I do not accept instant booking requests. Please send a message instead, and I will respond as soon as possible. I am a highly experienced childcare professional with 8 years of experience supporting children and families in both private and agency-based settings. Most recently, I worked through a top Boston-area nanny agency in a role that combined full-time care with advanced behavioral and developmental support. I am deeply committed to providing care that is warm, intentional, and responsive to each child's individual needs. I believe children are among our greatest teachers, and I value creating environments where they feel safe, respected, and encouraged to grow--emotionally, socially, and cognitively. My background includes work with infants, toddlers, and school-age children, as well as children with developmental and behavioral support needs. I hold an M. A. and have received graduate training in behavioral science.

Keri has been babysitting regularly for our two daughters ages 8 and 5 since April 2023. She is approachable, authentic and confident in her ability to go beyond just watching our girls and actually engage them. Our daughters adore her and excitedly await her arrival. I would describe Keri as an outwardly positive person with a warm smile and a gentle temperament. She is calm, considerate, adaptable and easy going to work with. I never worry she is on her phone instead of being present with our children. She is thoughtful and nurturing in her actions with the girls, effectively maintains our parenting style and communicates effectively and clearly with all of us. She is also punctual, conscientious and tidy and responds in a timely manner to all communication. When I am hiring anyone to care for my children it is vital that we are able to quickly establish communication that is direct and honest. My eldest daughter has epilepsy and I need to be confident that the person with them in my absence is trustworthy, dependable and calm in a crisis. That person also needs to be someone with whom my children will feel safe with in an emergency situation. Trust is paramount. From our first meeting I felt that Keri would be all of these things and she has exceeded our hopes in nearly every way. She has never let me down no matter how big the request and we have all come to think of her like a member of our extended family. I would not hesitate to recommend her.
