About Shelly

Experience: 15 yrs

Bringing 15 years of experience nurturing children aged newborn to 11, I'm eager to provide exceptional care for your little one. My passion stems from a deep desire to foster growth and development, inspired by positive experiences in previous babysitting roles. I'm patient, calm, creative, and approachable, always prioritizing a child's well-being. I communicate with parents through verbal updates at pickup, regular texts, or any method you prefer. I'm comfortable following your household rules and enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational activities. CPR Training and light housekeeping are skills I bring to your family. I'm comfortable caring for one child at a time, allowing me to focus all my attention on your child's needs. Knowing I can make a positive impact on your child's life brings me joy.

It is with the utmost enthusiasm that I recommend Shelly as a nanny. Shelly had been with our family in Long Island City when my daughter was in middle school. We truly considered her an essential part of our family. From the very beginning, Shelly demonstrated warmth, reliability, and professionalism. She has an incredible gift with children—calm, nurturing, and endlessly patient. Whether reading stories or organizing play dates, she consistently engaged our daughter with care and attention. Shelly is deeply responsible and dependable. She was always on time, maintained a consistent routine, and communicated clearly with us about daily activities, meals, naps, and developmental milestones. She kept our home tidy and always took initiative—whether it was restocking supplies or preparing healthy meals. She was incredibly adaptable and always supportive. Most importantly, our daughter loves and trusts her. She felt safe and loved in her presence, which gave us tremendous peace of mind as working parents. Her positive influence is evident in their good manners, confidence, and empathy. Shelly is a truly exceptional caregiver, and we feel so fortunate to have had her in our lives. Any family would be lucky to have her, and we give her our highest recommendation without reservation.
