About Shay

Experience: 8 yrs

Hi I'm Shay! I am 20 years old. I've been caring for kids since I was 12, including my 4 nieces and 6 nephews, plus babysitting for a set of twins-so I'm used to busy, fun days! I truly love kids and am saving for school to become a pediatric nurse and dream of having a family of my own. I'm CPR & First Aid certified and have an Associate of Science degree. I am happy to help with cooking and cleaning, and I'm a huge animal lover. I'd love to be someone you and your child feels safe and happy around!

Shay who has been an exceptional caregiver for our family. During the time she worked with us, she consistently demonstrated warmth, reliability, and a genuine love for children that made a lasting impact on our home. Shay cared for our child with incredible patience and attentiveness. She created a safe, nurturing environment while also encouraging creativity, learning, and independence. Whether it was organizing engaging activities, helping with homework, or simply being a comforting presence, she always went above and beyond what was expected. One of her greatest strengths is her ability to connect with children on their level while maintaining structure and respect. Our children not only felt cared for, but truly understood and valued. We saw growth in their confidence, behavior, and emotional well-being during her time with us. In addition to her childcare skills, Shay is dependable, punctual, and communicates clearly. We always felt at ease knowing our children were in such capable and trustworthy hands. It is rare to find someone who treats your children with the same love and dedication as family, and that is exactly what Shay has done. I recommend her without hesitation to any family looking for a compassionate and responsible nanny!
