Experience: 10 yrs
Bringing joy to children's lives is my passion, and I have dedicated the last 16 years to providing nurturing care for children aged 1 week to 9 years. I am patient, calm, and caring. I follow the parents' lead when it comes to rules. I enjoy taking kiddos outdoors as well as finding creative ways to add education through play. I enjoy having age appropriate music playing all day. I'm comfortable with and have cared for 4 children at a time, counting heads at the pool! I've done carpooling, baby bottles, nanny shares, twins, cousins, 1 kiddo, class field trips, taking 3 to the zoo. To name a few! Love it all! I have a college degree and am certified in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I'm in my 40's and this is a passion for me! I am happy to make your life easier and help your children grow. Communication is important to me, and I'd love to discuss what route works best for your family. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family.
We were looking for a nanny for our infant son. Keri came in when our son was about 2-3 months old. She absolutely loves babies. She was so sweet, patient, and loving. Being a new mom with no immediate family support, it was important to find someone we could trust with our son. Keri watched our son part time since she has a full time family that she’s been with for years. Even when I went back to work and found a full time nanny… Keri still checked in on us, she still bought our son little presents/gifts and she still wanted to see him and nanny for us even if it was just date night. The way she engaged and interacted with him was so genuine. She is such a patient, kind soul and we are so grateful to have had her be in our lives. We’ve had our fair share of nanny horror stories, so I really want to recommend Keri for all you mamas looking for a caring person who will love and cherish your children.
