I have worked as a nanny for 21 years. For me it has been my most rewarding job!! The ages of children have been from infancy to school age. I also have experience taking care of multiples. I have a background in child education and know how important those developmental milestones are! Care includes feeding, structured play activities, crafts, music, outdoor play and walks, reading. My goal always is for you parents to know while you are away that your baby is safe, happy and thriving in every way. Communication between us is so very important in making sure that your little one is on the right track. I feel confident about my capabilities of care and discipline. I have many reference letters along with phone numbers from my previous families. I am fully vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19. I can provide proof of this status. Thanks for your time. I hope to hear from you.
We were incredibly fortunate to have Vanetta join our family when our son was just a few weeks old. From the very beginning, she brought a sense of calm and confidence that gave us peace of mind during those exhausting early months. She provided overnight care twice a week for the better part of half a year, during which time she helped our son develop consistent and healthy sleep patterns. Her expertise in infant sleep and her intuitive, gentle manner made a real difference for all of us. Beyond her work at night, Vanetta also accompanied us on multiple international trips, and her adaptability and professionalism stood out each time. Traveling with an infant is never easy, but Vanetta managed everything with grace—keeping our son’s routine intact while navigating new places and situations with ease. Whether it was a busy airport, an unfamiliar hotel room, or a time zone change, she handled it all with care and efficiency. From Europe to the Caribbean, she consistently ensured our son was content, rested, and well cared for. Vanetta is thoughtful, dependable, and deeply nurturing. Her presence made those early parenting months less stressful and more enjoyable, and we truly appreciated having someone so trustworthy by our side. Any family would be lucky to have her support.
