About Polly

Experience: 20 yrs

For two decades, I've dedicated myself to nurturing young minds and supporting families. My passion lies in fostering children's growth and creating a positive impact on their lives. I hold a college degree and have completed Early Child Development Coursework. I am also certified in First Aid Training and CPR Training. My approach is patient, creative, and friendly. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and tailor my communication to your preferences, providing regular updates via text, phone, or in person. I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. Caring for one child at a time allows me to provide focused, individualized attention. I truly love seeing the world through a child's eyes, and I look forward to the opportunity to connect with your family.
