About Teresa

Experience: 10 yrs

***weekends only** Hi there, I'm Teresa - your friendly neighborhood nanny with a psychology degree! I have 10+ years of childcare experience, including but not limited to overnight care and working with infants / young children on the autism spectrum. I am truly passionate about childcare, and I place a lot of love and care into the work that I do. When I babysit, I enjoy engaging children in imaginary play, incorporating music, being active outside, organizing crafts, reading, problem solving, and helping infants/children reach new milestones. I value the strong, personal connections that can be built with children and families overtime. Furthermore, I understand the importance of being punctual, reliable, organized, and communicative. As a caregiver, I provide attentive, nurturing care that encompasses your goals and parenting philosophies for your child(ren). I strive to work together as a team and exceed expectations. If this sounds like a good fit, I'd love to hear from you!

Teresa has been a wonderful help for us. She is not only great with our daughter but also doesn't mind taking care of our cats from time to time. Our daughter was 7 months old when Teresa first came over. I was impressed by the creative ways Teresa had of entertaining her. She is respectful of the schedule we try to keep our daughter on. She is tidy and always cleaning up after meals or playtime. Teresa has been flexible and willing to work around my schedule. She has always been punctual and polite. I would have no hesitation in recommending her and trusting her with your children or pets.
