About Laura

Experience: 15 yrs

For over 20 years, I've found joy in supporting families by providing dependable childcare. I specialize in infant care but have cared for children of all ages. My approach is patient and creative, and I strive to be friendly and approachable to both children and parents. I always follow a parent's lead on household rules and communication preferences. I enjoy playing board games and educational games with children, and getting outside for physical activities as well. I have a bachelor's degree and certifications in First Aid Training and CPR Training. As a trained massage therapist, I'm equipped to provide nurturing care. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children and happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. I have a car and love caring for your pets. I also speak Spanish ans look forward to practicing with your kids if theys kiie to learn. I look forward to bringing my experience and caring nature to your family. Laura

Laura has been fantastic in helping with the care of our infant son. She's very attentive and very interactive with him (talks, plays, reads, etc.). It's been a tremendous relief having her support especially given this is our first baby. She's even great with our dogs, who seem to feel a little left out since the little one arrived. We're really glad to have found her.
