Experience: 10 yrs
As a Greek American, I grew up taking care of many little cousins and siblings. I have always loved spending time with children and seeing their development over the years. When in college, for four summers, I was a nanny for two children (an 11-year-old girl and an 8-year-old boy). I also took care of their adorable Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Timmy. When not dropping and picking them up from summer camps (I have a car!), we rotated playing outside, executing arts & crafts, baking, and playing board games. My childcare philosophy is to step back from electronics and screen time (not eliminate, but decentralize them) and focus on meaningful interactions and activities. Most recently, I was taking care of a newborn from August 2024 to December 2024, three times a week. I have agreed to travel with this family for a week in April 2025 when they go to a wedding in Florida to watch the baby.
Recommendation Letter To whom it may concern, I write this letter to recommend Nicole S. as a nanny. I have had the pleasure to work with Nicole for the care of my infant son, and she is a true natural. Children simply adore her. Nicole is attentive and very responsible, allowing me to feel at ease and confident that my son is in the best care. It’s important to me for my son to be engaged in Montessori-style play to promote his development, and Nicole was eager to tailor her approach accordingly. She’s creative and playful. Nicole is patient and kind, and cared for my son following a gentle parenting style that I prefer. It is so difficult to find someone to trust to nanny your children but Nicole is truly incredible, and I cannot recommend her enough
