About Shelly

I am a 48-year-old active empty nester looking to continue being a professional nanny while I attend graduate school. The little girl I cared for will be going to preschool this fall. I can provide glowing references, great recommendation letters and a detailed resume. After many years of childcare experience, I have seen it all and can handle it all! After earning my bachelor's degree and before having children of my own, I worked as a preschool teacher. I have been President of the Board for a children's home in Recife, Brazil since 2012. I love to spend time engaging children's imaginations through reading, crafts, adventures, and outdoor play. My philosophy is to develop a trusting relationship with each child and adjusting care according to their needs and communicating effectively with parents about their child. My favorite nanny moment was when the little girl I nannied told me she loved me. I adore children and can't wait to spend time with yours!
