Hi, I'm Rachel! I have 6 years of nanny experience and 4 years in professional daycare, caring for children from 6 weeks to 8 years old. I'm working toward my Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education and hold early childhood certifications. I'm a fun, active, and dependable caregiver who loves helping kids learn, grow, and feel safe. I'm big on routines, creativity, and keeping each day engaging, whether we're being silly, exploring outside, or winding down with a calm activity. Some of my favorite things to do with kids: • Sensory play • Walks & outdoor adventures • Storytime • Arts & crafts • Imaginative play • Learning games • Homework help • Dance parties • Simple kid-friendly baking • Cozy calming activities
Rachel was coming for an interview but failed to let us know she was still 45 minutes behind until just 5 minutes before the interview time (after I messaged her). She then said she was stuck in a traffic jam that didn’t show on any map app (we checked several). We were patient and understanding but she stopped replying when we asked her to send a screenshot of her location on the map. She was clearly caught in a lie. Perhaps she’s a good caretaker, but we didn’t care to move forward with her.
