I have been caring for children for over 20 years, I love my job and I am a natural when it comes to children of all ages. I worked for several families in the San Francisco Bay area and was with one of them for eight years before I relocated to the Charlotte Metro for 12 years and now living in Raleigh to be near my granddaughters. I am a very patient person, I like to work with parents on discipline styles to find the best discipline style suited to each child, as every child is unique. I love doing activities such as reading, arts and crafts, playing with barbies or cars and trucks, I also enjoy taking children for walks and to the park for picnics. Taking care of Children feels natural to me and comes with ease. I have a number of excellent references which I can provide upon request. You won't be disappointed.
Linda has been our nanny for two years, and we would keep her forever if she could! I like to call her Mary Poppins because she does it all. She goes above and beyond and has become like family to us. She really interacts with the kids and truly loves them: gets down on the floor to play, takes them outside, brings over books she knows they'll love. When the kids are napping she picks up, folds laundry, and organizes, all without being asked. My house has never looked better! She started when my son was an infant and my daughter was 2, and the kids adore her. Whenever the doorbell rings they get excited because they think it's Linda. She's hardly ever taken a sick day, or day off in two years. We have two large dogs and she's great with them too. It is so hard to leave your kids with someone, but with Linda I've always known my kids are in good hands. If you want someone who is dependable, caring, trustworthy, and that both you and your kids will love, Linda is your person!
