About Laurie

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello! Caring for children is what I love most; I've been doing it since 1980 (see reviews). As an Infant Specialist, I nanny for professional families (medical, government, etc.), caring for their wee ones. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Education, certificates in Childhood Education from Harvard, Stanford, Cornell, and Yale Universities, and am in progress on a Masters Degree in Mental Health Counseling. I am trustworthy, patient, kind, gentle, calm, and compassionate. I retired in 2019 from a career in environmental education, public relations, marketing, and development. I have a new car, a clean driving record, and am a nonsmoker. I am CPR and water safety certified, and Covid vaxed and boosted. If you need someone highly child-experienced and mature, I am your nanny! I seek 40 hours per week and am flexible on days/hours. My rate starts at 35/hr. More at my site at. In gratitude for your kind consideration, Laurie.

Laurie has exceeded all the expectations we had of a nanny for our girls. She provides them with all the love and care in the world, plus opportunities to learn and grow. She goes above and beyond to make every day fun and creates a peaceful and nurturing environment. Our girls adore her, she has become a member of our family. With welcoming a 2nd baby in to our family, she has been invaluable as a support person for us and our oldest. Could not recommend enough!
