About Valerie

Experience: 1 yr

Knowing I can support families by providing reliable care for their children is what I love most about being a childcare provider. I've raised three children of my own, now 18-22. I'm CPR certified by the American Red Cross. I'm patient, calm, creative, and friendly. I have a college degree and am comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games with children. I love to color and draw. I'm happy to communicate with parents through written daily reports and follow your preferred communication method. I am comfortable with pets. All the above is true, thank you Care. com. I'm also a soon-to-be empty nester and am really enjoying the new purpose I get from babysitting/nannying. I'm good with kids of all ages. I'm prompt, reliable, energetic and tidy. My home life is happy and smoke-free. My vehicle is only 3 years old and has a 5-star safety rating. I would love to help you care for your little one(s) and hope to hear from you!

Valerie watched my 17 month old son for 3 days while our regular nanny was on vacation. She was wonderful. My son enjoyed spending time with her, and she was very communicative. Valerie offered to do a meet and greet a few days early, and I really appreciated that. Absolutely will hire again.
