Experience: 10 yrs
Hello families, My name is Laura and I am 34 years old. I have been a Nanny for over 10 years and I love caring for children. I love seeing the world through their eyes and helping them navigate and enjoy the world. I have experience working with children from newborn up until age 13 and I am often caring for 3 or more children. I love dancing, singing, reading, doing arts and crafts, playing sports, being outdoors, swimming, imaginary play and many other fun engaging activities with my Nanny kids. It is important to me to give children a safe, fun, caring and entertaining environment while Mom and Dad are away. I like to keep a journal for parents so they know what we have been up to and what their children have eaten. I believe strongly in being a team with parents so their children are cared for the way the parents want. I also like to help around the house so that parents have more time to spend with their children when they get home from work.

Laura is an exceptional care giver and an incredible individual. She has been with our family for nearly a year and has continued to surpass any expectations I ever had for a care giver. My two children absolutely love Laura--she encourages lots of creative play, reading, adventure, arts and crafts and more. Laura is extremely caring, thoughtful, kind and trustworthy. Laura has become a loving member of our family and I simply couldn't have transitioned back to work full-time without her support. Any family would be fortunate to have Laura as a caregiver.
