About Nickel

Hi! I'm a CPR/First Aid certified mom of three (two grown), with years of experience as both a nanny and early childhood educator. I've lived in Hixson for 16 years and currently care for a 7mo. old Tues-Thurs during the day. I'm available Fri-Mon and most evenings. I'm reliable, a non-smoker, have my own transportation, and can help with cooking, light housekeeping, and pet care. I specialize in newborns, toddlers, potty training, and kids with special needs-and especially love caring for little ones under 2, though I enjoy working with all ages. I believe one fully engaged caregiver is worth more than several distracted ones-no screens, just quality interaction. I plan fun, age-appropriate indoor/outdoor activities that support learning and development. I treat each child with the same care and intention I'd want for my own. I'd love to find a great fit with a family who values connection, safety, and play. Looking forward to meeting you!
