About Shelby

Experience: 12 yrs

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. With 12 years of experience providing dedicated care for up to three children, I bring a patient, creative, and approachable energy to every family I support. My background includes Early Child Development coursework, which informs how I lead educational games and foster growth. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment. Whether we are playing outdoor sports, solving puzzles, or preparing healthy meals, I am committed to making a positive impact. I am comfortable with pets and happy to assist with light housekeeping. I prioritize your preferred communication method to keep you updated on your child's day. I am very comfortable upholding your household rules and look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life.

Shelby is seriously fantastic. I have trust issues with just anyone watching my precious boy, but Shelby quickly eased all of that anxiety. My son is 6 months old and every day she helps him with learning new skills, communication, she sings to him, comforts him, and even helped me crib train him. She is very knowledgeable about children and infants- I actually ask her questions and learn from her and I’m the mom! 😂 She genuinely cares for our son, and even has bought him things like a jolly jumper, silicone plates and silverware, bottles, and teethers all to make his life easier and happier. Having Shelby around allows my husband and I to focus on our remote work jobs, go to the gym, the pool, and as she says “pour into us”. We have to relocate to Texas for a job, and leaving Shelby behind will be a massive loss for us, but a wonderful gain for whoever welcomes her into their home next!
