About Rachel

Experience: 7 yrs

Nurturing children and watching them blossom has always been a passion of mine. For the past eight years, I've had the joy of providing care and support to families, making a real difference in children's lives. I have a college degree and am certified in First Aid Training and CPR Training. My approach is patient, calm, and creative. I love engaging children through outdoor sports, board games, and educational activities. I always follow the parents' lead when it comes to household rules and communication. I provide regular updates via text or phone call or through your preferred method. I am comfortable caring for one child at a time and am happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I find immense joy in seeing children learn and grow, and I'm excited to bring my experience and enthusiasm to your family.

We had the absolute pleasure of hiring Rachel while we were visiting Gulf Shores, and she exceeded every expectation. From the moment she walked in, she was warm, professional, and instantly connected with our kids. She kept them engaged, happy, and safe the entire time, which allowed my spouse and I to truly relax and enjoy some much-needed “mom and dad” time at the beach. Rachel was incredibly attentive, patient, and kind. Our kids were talking about how much fun they had with her long after she left. She has a natural ability to make children feel comfortable, and she handled everything with confidence and care. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely wonderful with kids, Rachel is the one. We couldn’t recommend her more highly and are so grateful for the time she spent with our family!
