About Nikki

Experience: 5 yrs

Hello, my name is Nikki! I am 27 years old and am interested in part-time work to help you in any way possible! If you're searching for after-school care or a weekend nanny, I am your person! I currently work full time as a Senior Content Producer for an energy drink company however, I miss the ability to incorporate my creative energy into the relationships that evolve in the world of child care. Therefore, I am currently looking to dive back into this magical field and would be grateful for the opportunity to do so with your family. I also have been surrounded by animals my entire life and am currently a bunny mom of 2, so I am comfortable with pets. Thank you for your consideration. I cannot wait to connect!

I cannot gush enough about Nikki, she was literally our saving grace! Earlier this year my wife and I took on some work opportunities that left us in need of child care Tuesday and Thursday evenings for just over a month. Normally we would turn to family members that live nearby but at that time it just wasn't in the cards. We were able to find Nikki through trusted mutual friends and right off the bat N. took to her warm and energetic presence, which was one of my biggest concerns. At that initial meeting, Nikki was respectful and receptive to both our concerns and house rules. In addition to being responsive to text messages, on my breaks or when I could step away from my project, I would FaceTime to check in and they were always elbow deep in some sort of craft, art project or book. So I never worried that N. was just plopped in front of a screen, the proof is literally still on my fridge lol. If we ever needed to add time, as long as we gave her a heads up, Nikki was always flexible, accommodating and understanding. Sadly, once our projects concluded and the normal schedule resumed, N. would ask about her all the time. So, while we may not see her as often, she remains our go-to sitter for date nights!
