Hello there! For the past two and a half years I've been a full time nanny for a great family and their first newborn. Their child is starting school in July so I'm available to start with another family at that time. I am a nonsmoker, have my BS, a reliable SUV and am renewing my CPR/AED/FA certification soon. I have experience caring for children of all ages and am a very involved aunt to littles from newborn to high school age. I'm comfortable with pets as I grew up on a small ranch and have a great love of all animals. Even my niece's pet rats! In years prior as a professional senior caregiver I've worked to improve the quality of life for a wide range of clients. From those in physical therapy to those needing comfort as they say their last goodbyes with loved ones. If I sound like a good fit for your family please message me. I look forward to connecting!
We have had the privilege of having Lydia care for our daughter for the past two years, and it is difficult to put into words how grateful we are for everything she has meant to our family. From day one, Lydia took initiative and quickly became an invaluable part of our lives. She is incredibly reliable, trustworthy, engaging, and loving. She consistently went above and beyond to ensure our daughter was not only well cared for, but also happy, learning, and thriving. What makes Lydia truly special is the genuine bond she formed with our daughter. Their relationship is built on love, trust, and mutual affection, and it has been beautiful to watch. Our daughter absolutely adores her and looks forward to spending time with her every day. As parents, there is no greater comfort than knowing your child is with someone who cares for them as if they were family. Lydia brings warmth, patience, creativity, and professionalism to everything she does. She is proactive, attentive, and always willing to help wherever needed. She has become so much more than a nanny to us and she is truly part of our family. We are only parting ways due to changing circumstances, and if we could continue having her with us, we absolutely would. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have Lydia care for their children. We recommend her wholeheartedly!!
