Hello there, my name is Michelle. I'm an experienced Nanny, PreK teacher and babysitter with over 20 years experience. I love to do art, science, reading and cooking projects with kids; enjoy day trips to local parks, libraries, learning centers, hiking trails etc and I'm a big believer in children having fun, tactile experiences, teachable moments and creating built associations- because when theyre doing this by having fun, they're learning so much more than by paperwork/flash cards and rote memorization. I also promote many different social and emotional skills ranging from emotion identification, problem solving with words, independence and life skills as well as helping children see that the world is a wonderfully unique and different place, and above all kindness and their actions and responsibilities matter.
She is patient, attentive, and truly engaged in my child’s development. She plans age-appropriate activities that encourage learning, creativity, and independence, while also making sure my daughter is having fun. I’ve seen noticeable growth in my daughter’s communication, confidence, and social skills thanks to her care. She is also incredibly reliable, responsible, and communicative. I always feel at ease knowing my daughter is in capable hands. She keeps me updated throughout the day and is proactive in handling any situation that arises. What stands out most is her genuine kindness and dedication—she treats my daughter as if she were her own. Any family would be lucky to have her, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving nanny.
