I am a seasoned professional childcare provider with 31 years of experience. I have my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have a nursing and teaching background. I have also been a foster parent. I have multiples experience with 5 sets of triplets and several nanny shares on my resume- including the 4-child group of 1-3yr olds I'm working with right now. For regularly scheduled care you can expect planned activities for your children and child related household help. I also have special/medical needs and preemie experience. I generally only work with kids under 11 years old. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Nina cared for our daughter for about 18 months as part of a nanny share, and we truly loved having her. She is knowledgable and hands-on about child development, from nap schedules and feeding requirements to important milestones like potty training. She worked closely with all of the families in the share, kept communication open, and always made sure responsibilities (like meals, hosting, and equipment needs) were divided equitably. Most importantly, she created a warm, engaging environment with age-appropriate activities that allowed our kids to learn, play, and grow. Our daughter looked forward to coming to the nanny share every day and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in Nina’s care. We are so grateful for the consistency she brought to our family.

Nina cared for our 2 children both in a nanny share and a traditional nanny setup, and she was nothing short of amazing. Nina brings so much knowledge and experience, and my kids always felt safe, loved, and excited to spend time with her. We felt so supported and at ease with them in her care. She’s great at balancing schedules, keeping kids engaged with fun and educational activities, and communicating clearly with parents. We feel so lucky to have had her and recommend her wholeheartedly!

Nina provided great care for our kiddos. She provided a structured approach for their days. Most weeks had a theme that her activities followed (wheels, animals, colors, etc). The day was a great balance of structured activity and free play for the kiddos. They came home with plenty of artwork that they made with Nina. 

It has been an absolute pleasure having Nina care for my daughter, M, over the past year.  From the time M joined Nina&#39;s nanny share at age one, I observed remarkable growth in her social skills and overall development. Nina possesses a genuine talent for crafting age-appropriate curriculum that captivates the children and fosters a joyful learning environment.  I have consistently been impressed by Nina&#39;s attentive care, and her dedication to ensuring each child&#39;s needs are not only met, but exceeded.  Her thoughtful planning of enriching field trips throughout the year further distinguishes her exceptional service and provides truly memorable experiences for the children.  I wholeheartedly recommend Nina to any family seeking a diligent and nurturing caregiver for their children.  She is truly outstanding.

A tenured professional in the child care home space. Was very caring of my son, and his tendency for anxiety when separated from his parents. Daily activities were schedule to keep the kids busy and Nina was always prompt in her communication. Daily photos of C. while in Nina&#39;s care gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend Nina. 

Nina has cared for my daughter for the past 2.5 years as part of a nannyshare.  She began caring for my daughter when she was 4 months old (along with 2 other 4 month old infants).  We eventually added a 4th child to our nannyshare with nina handled w/ ease.  Nina has been a godsend, particularly those first 18 months when the developmental stages go so fast. Nina has a wealth of experience & comes prepared with a variety of developmental activities.  She seriously blew me away with all the different developmental activities she did with our barely mobile infants!  All of the children that were part of the nannyshare excelled tremendously in their development thanks to Nina.  Beyond the experience & masterful ideas though is a kind, caring, thoughtful individual that to you are able to feel completely comfortable entrusting your child’s well being with.  Nina will always have a very special place in both my daughter’s heart & mine.  She’s been an amazing first chapter in my daughter’s life.  If you are looking for the total package, you’d search stops here… do yourself a favor & give her a call.  

Nina is an amazing, experienced childcare provider. She has provided care for our now 2.5-year-old son since he was 3 months old. We felt very comfortable with Nina from the beginning based on her extensive training and experience in childcare, along with her warm personality with children. She is very structured in her curriculum with a systematic and routine-based approach. She is very creative, especially when it comes to planning a variety of educational and fun activities for children, which also align with their developmental stage and cognitive abilities. Nina is very reliable, punctual, and has great communication skills with both parents and children, and we would highly recommend her.

Nina was such a blessing to our family. She cared for our daughter in a nannyshare format. She is incredibly intentional and thoughtful about all aspects of care - safety, nourishment, development, routine, milestones, education, logistics, etc. 

Our daughter has flourished in her care. She loves that Nina is consistent, fun and fair. The days are structured similarly and then each month/season has a theme that she uses to guide art, science, play, real-life activities. She has learned so much through this immersive kind of learning. 

Nina’s communication is thorough and timely which allows for planning and clear understanding of plans/expectations, etc. we are so grateful for our years with Nina! 

Nina was wonderful with our son - she was with him from age 4 months until 2 years old. We attribute a lot of his advanced development to the attention and care that Nina provided. She also genuinely loved him and she still comes to watch him and our infant son on occasion!

Nina was fantastic! She is extremely experienced, professional, and easy to communicate with. She also easily engaged with three kiddos and made them feel comfortable right away. The kids reported having a great time too! I only have positive things to say about the experience and I would be happy to work with her again!

We have hired Nina through a nanny sharing setting. We trust her with our kids. She is very experienced. But more importantly, she genuinely loves our child, cares about her health and her development. We would definitively love to hire her again and recommend her to anyone.

Nina has been with us for over a year. She has been a wonderful addition to our family. She is very knowledgeable of all the developmental milestones and outs this into practice when playing with my children. She has amazing patients with my rambunctious 2 year old. He loves playing with her when she comes over. She always keeps him busy with age appropriate activities  and never just lets him watch TV. My youngest has some health concerns, she jumped right in and was not afraid to Care for and monitor him. She also helps with the kids laundry and keeping their rooms clean and organized. She has been a true blessing to our family. I  definitely recommend her for your toddler childcare needs.

As COVID-19 descended on all of us, my partner and I had to make a tough decision about how we would care for our two year old son and newborn daughter as we both retained our full-time jobs. Daycare remained open and an option, but pushed us outside our comfort zones. That's where Nina comes in!

With a lifetime of experience caring for children in formal and informal roles, Nina has been an incredible addition to our family. 

She has exceed our expectations with her thoughtful approach to care and learning. She's developed a report with our children that's allowed them to flourish in these unusual times. 

Her lesson plays for the day, which are guided by her goals for the quarter are what truly set Nina apart. She brings a thoughtful approach to everything from learning to potty training - always keeping the children's development at the forefront and adhering to their pace of learning. 

A true professional.

No call, no show. Even rescheduled the interview twice. Not a good sign of someone that's dependable and punctual.

We interviewed Nina for an occasional babysitting job. Unfortunately our schedules didn't align due to us only needing intermittent babysitting and she was looking for full time. However, Nina impressed me to no end. She was so punctual, friendly, and extremely educated when it came to knowing what our child would need. Nina answered every question with ease and was so easy to talk to. We plan to still use Nina for the occasional date night when she is available! If you are looking for a full-time babysitter I have no doubt Nina would be amazing!

Nina stands out among other Care.com job seekers due to her professionalism, timely responses, and experience.  Although we knew prior to the interview that our schedules were not a good fit, Nina took the time to speak with me and answer any questions I had.  Although we have chosen an alternate route for our nanny position, we plan to keep Nina on our short list of reliable child care providers that can cover occasional evening or weekend hours.

Nina was a wonderful caregiver for our twins when they were 6 mos to 2 years of age. She kept them engaged all day with a "curriculum" of developmentally-appropriate activities. I appreciated her proactive approach to things like nap schedule and dietary changes, paci weaning, use of utensils etc. She always had experience-based suggestions for dealing with these transitions. Most parents pore over parenting books; with Nina around, I didn't have to! 

We interviewed with Nina and found her to be wonderful. She is exceptionally professional! She is intelligent, experienced, motherly, and organized. She will make a fantastic nanny. We chose a different nanny due to our unpredictable work schedule but would feel very comfortable with Nina caring for our daughter.

Nina has been a wonderful caregiver for our 6 month old baby. We choose Nina because she has great knowledge and experience as a caregiver and is very professional.  She is always punctual and has great communication.  I appreciate that she leaves detailed notes for me when I return so I know about feedings, diaper changes, naps and what activities they have done together.  It is such a joy to have a caregiver like Nina and to know our baby is in good hands when we are away. I would HIGHLY recommend Nina as a caregiver.
