This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 9 yrs
For as long as I can remember I've loved being around babies and children. As a 10-year-old, I became a big sister and it was a dream come true! Having the opportunity to actively participate in every aspect of child care from an early age provided me with an invaluable foundation of curiosity, patience, creativity and imagination that are now my compass for how I approach my job as a nanny on a day to day basis. Creating a safe space for children to learn and play while also being present, observant and engaged in ways that bring meaning and joy to their day is my top priority. Prior to nannying, I trained professionally in classical ballet and pursued a career in dance as well as studied holistic nutrition and completed my health coach certification. I also have a background in studying classical piano for over 10 years and love to incorporate music, singing and creative play on a daily basis.

We have had the pleasure of having Lily as our part-time nanny for the past ~2 years for our toddler between ages ~1yo - almost 3yo. We are now in need of full-time care and we are VERY sad to see her go! Lily is an experienced, responsible nanny who we would highly recommend. Some particular attributes include: 1. Responsible- I never worried about my son when he was in Lily's care. I knew he was safe and well cared for. 2. Reliable- She was always on time and provided ample notice for any vacation/sick days. 3. Professional- Professional communication, never on her phone except to send us a couple of photos/updates during the day. She would notify us if she was taking our son to a new place, but was also independent and self-motivated in arranging activities for the day. 4. Active- My son has lots of energy, and Lily always got him out of the house a minimum of 1-2 times per day. 5. Calm- Lily was an amazing calming/leveling presence for my son. She would always stay calm/modulated even when my son got upset and would provide lots of redirection, warnings, etc while also providing routine and structure. In sum, Lily was great and I would highly recommend her!
