Experience: 10 yrs
I am passionate about nurturing children's growth and providing reliable child care for families. With over 10 years of experience caring for children of all ages, I specialize in babies and children under five. I can help establish schedules and engage children in age-appropriate activities that promote learning and development. I am patient, calm, friendly, and approachable. I follow your preferred communication method and love to share photos of our daily activities such as library visits, park outings, and walks. I am also comfortable in homes with pets. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. Knowing I can make a positive impact on a child's life brings me immense joy, and I hope to share that with your family.
Laura is a very reliable and caring caregiver. She watched our little one for a year from about the age of 6 months to 18 months. She was always on time, is a great communicator, and takes and shares pictures and updates every day so you know what your little one is up to. And it’s clear she has a lot of experience with kids!! She knows all the kids books and songs by heart, knows age appropriate toys, and is comfortable offering up suggestions when she thinks it’s time to rotate toys or books. She loves taking the kids for walks and will spend a lot of time outside with the em, weather permitting. Laura is also great with pets and will treat them like another one of your children. Our dog gets plenty of love and attention and gets to join on daily walks. We’ve even hired Laura to watch our fur baby while we’re out of town in her home, and to come walk him for us in a bind. It’s clear Laura cares a lot about the children and pets in her care. She’ll treat them like her own. She’s not afraid to make suggestions or recommendations based on her experience, but is very respectful of your guidance and preferences.
