CPR and First Aid Certified Hi there! I'm an experienced childcare provider with a special passion for babies, though I love working with kids of all ages. My journey began with babysitting and grew into years of after-school care and four summers at camp, where I honed my skills in keeping kids active and entertained. I create a safe, nurturing environment for babies, helping them with tummy time, peek-a-boo, and reading, while also supporting their development. For older kids, I help with homework, lead activities, and organize fun games. Communication is key, so I always stay in touch with parents in whatever way works best for them. With six years of experience, I'm comfortable caring for up to four kids, from newborns to pre-teens. Babies have my heart, but I'm happy to care for children of all ages and give them all the love and attention they need! Please feel free to message here!

Accidentally posted on using summers name as my own! Hiring Summer as our night nanny for our newborn was one of the best decisions we made as new parents. From the very first night, she brought such a calm, reassuring presence to our home — it was clear she had a deep understanding of newborn care and a true passion for helping families. She was incredibly gentle, attentive, and responsive to our baby’s needs, while also supporting us with valuable advice and encouragement. Thanks to Summer, we were able to get the precious rest we desperately needed, knowing our baby was in expert, loving hands. She kept detailed notes about feeding, diapering, and sleep patterns, and offered insights that helped us establish healthy routines. Beyond her professionalism, she brought a warmth and kindness that made her feel like part of our family. We are endlessly grateful for her care, dedication, and expertise during such an important time in our lives. We would recommend Summer to any family without hesitation — she is truly exceptional!
