I currently work for 2 families. One in the morning/ early afternoon, 2 boys 3&4. The next family with 1 girl 7 and 2 boys 10&12. From 4/2021-9/2025 I cared for an 1-month-old infant boy and a 2-year-old girl until they were 3 1/2 and 5. I joyfully love, nurture and care for the daily needs of the children in my charge. I read stories, take them on nature walks, create art, play games, teach them, take themto the playground and library. I will fold laundry, cook meals and keep the playroom cleaned up. 7/2020-4/2021 I cared for 2 boys 5 & 7years. I taught them and worked on their schooling during covid. After homework we engaged in an array of activities. My career for 20 years was as an AE. After that I stayed home with my children. In summers I hosted a Mom Camp, invited neighborhood children over tie dying, painting, story time, nature walks. My degree is in teaching with an art certification& special needs minor. I substitute taught for 7yrs in K-5 classes, Art class and autistic ch

We started with Lori when our son was just a newborn and our daughter was a little over a year old. Lori took wonderful care of our children for nearly four years, becoming an invaluable part of our family. She is incredibly kind, caring, and always attentive to details. Her reliability and great communication gave us constant peace of mind. Our kids adored her, whether they were creating art projects, playing games, or running around outdoors. Lori has an amazing energy that she easily matches to any age group, making every day fun and engaging for the children. Beyond being a great caregiver, Lori is also a good cook. She consistently prepared delicious, healthy meals for our kids, ensuring they were well-fed and happy. One of the sweetest moments was seeing how excited our kids, especially our son, were when Lori arrived—they would run to the door with big smiles, thrilled to see her. Lori's nurturing spirit and genuine love for children made her an extraordinary nanny, and we feel so fortunate to have had her care for our little ones. We highly recommend Lori to any family looking for someone who is not only a skilled professional but also a true friend to the children.
