About Shelley

Experience: 20 yrs

Hello! I am a caring and dependable nanny with over 45 years of experience working with children of all ages. I truly love helping children learn, grow, and feel supported in a safe and nurturing environment. I enjoy reading books with children, spending time outdoors, and creating fun, engaging activities that encourage curiosity and creativity. I have experience supporting children with special needs and spent 3 years working as a Direct Support Professional, providing compassionate care and assistance tailored to individual needs. I believe every child is unique and deserves patience, encouragement, and respect. I strive to build strong relationships with both children and families while providing reliable, loving care you can feel confident about. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family and provide the kind of care every child deserves.

Shelley watched over our oldest when he was 3 months old and then our youngest since she was born until they went to pre-K. She was great with them and the kids absolutely loved her. besides being very reliable, she was very nurturing with the kids, reading them their favorite books over and over at their request, which has led to them being absolute bookworms as grade schoolers. when the kids reached their terrible two's (and three's), she was incredibly patient with them, being gentle yet firm. she also communicated very well, reaching out if there was anything that she felt warranted a judgement call. We would wholeheartedly recommend Shelley to anyone. She helped out our family more than we can fathom - caring for, guiding, teaching, and protecting our kids in the crucial initial years. We can say without a doubt that she helped our kids have a leg up over other toddlers in preschool in terms of emotional maturity/knowledge.
