Hi!

I have over 10 years of experience as a nanny and have cared for children of all ages, from infants reaching early milestones to teens finding their independence. My background as a Certified Nursing Assistant, pre-nursing student, and former lead teacher has shaped my approach to care. I prioritize safety, child development, and building real, trusting connections with both kids and parents.

While I'm not currently offering long-term full-time care, I am available for full-time care during the summer. I also offer flexible support including part-time and short-term care, help on sick days when daycare isn't an option, evening care for date nights, overnight care, and last-minute backup.

My goal is to create a nurturing environment where children feel safe, seen, and supported-and where parents feel confident and at ease. If that sounds like a fit for your family, I'd love to connect.

Vera was lovely with both my kids (3yo and 1yo). They instantly liked her, and was a smooth transition. She’s extremely knowledgeable, as she’s studying nursing. Kept them both very engaged with different age appropriate activities throughout the day. She’s meticulously clean as well, which is an added bonus. We had an emergency one of the days, and she was flexible to stay back an extra hour to help out. 

Vera has been an absolute blessing as our nanny. She’s not only incredibly well-spoken and kind, but her ability to connect with the kids is truly amazing. The way they light up when she arrives speaks volumes about her warm and genuine nature. She has this unique way of blending fun and care with responsibility, which has made her such a special part of our family. Whether it's reading stories, planning creative activities, or lending a compassionate ear, Vera brings a level of dedication and joy that’s hard to find.

Beyond her wonderful rapport with the kids, Vera has been incredibly flexible, always willing to help with last-minute needs and changes. It’s reassuring to know we can rely on her no matter what comes up, which is invaluable as parents. If you’re looking for someone who is both professional and nurturing, someone who will make your children feel safe, happy, and cared for, Vera is your person. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!


I hired Vera two times last week and she was great! My kids loved being around and interacting with her. It was a very pleasant experience. I look forward to hiring her in the future.

Vera was fantastic; my children adore her! She followed the schedule diligently and even extended her stay by an hour. Hiring her would be a decision you won't regret.

So much for available for short notice care, and typical response time of 4 hours. Messaged Vera on Thursday for a job needed on Tuesday. No response as of Sunday afternoon. Made other arrangements at this point.

Vera has watched over my kids on several occasions. She is very courteous and responds timely. The kids love hanging out with her and she sends texts with updates throughout the evening.

Vera is great with kids, pets, older adults, and families! She helped me with care before and after my surgery, she ran errands, fed me and my family, and by the time she was finished with my care, I felt like I had known her for many years....she felt like family! Thank you!!

We are new to the area and Vera watched our kids (3 year old and 7 month old twins) for a date night. We aren't strict schedule people and were thrilled to find everyone happy and fed and ready for bed when we returned. will definitely be using her again!

Such a nice pleasant person. My kids loved her and can't wait to see her again. She made us feel safe to leave our kids in her care. She even gave us updates on the kiddos via text message. I will definitely hire again.

Vera has been a huge help.  She is great with the kids and not intimidated by the list I give her (make dinner, sweep, story time etc...).  My three kids are no problem for her. She has experience! Plus, she comes with a smile and uplifting attitude. 

As a first time mom, I was pretty nervous leaving my baby for the first time. I liked Vera after reading her profile and thought she would be a good fit. Interviewing her only solidified my gut feeling about her. Spending time with her before leaving my 12 wk old in her care sealed the deal and I knew I could count on her. She sent text and picture updates to keep my mind at ease and responded promptly. She followed my instructions for care closely. She also helped with our cat and dog and they both warmed up to her as well! I highly recommend Vera and will be hiring her again in the future.

Vera is very professional in her communication, which made it easy for us to book her with confidence. She was prompt, courteous, and receptive to our instructions for care. She did a wonderful job babysitting our 4-month old daughter. She texted us updates and pictures through the night! She has kids of her own and she clearly knows what she's doing with an infant. We will hire her again.

Thank you thank you thank you for putting my mind at ease you were simply amazing & I will be getting in touch with you again soon & please bring your daughter again Imani loves both of you!!

My daughter loves Vera. She is sweet, experienced, fun and easy going which is perfect for my separation anxiety prone toddler! My daughter warmed up to her right away, very impressed. We've already booked her again!

We hired Vera as a last-minute babysitter for our then 5mo old, M.! Vera watched her full-time for a week, and we couldn't have been more pleased. Vera is gentle, confident, and so helpful with M. She was instantly comfortable holding M., and made sure she stayed on her sleeping / eating schedule. Vera even gave us hugs goodbye before we left for work! She sent us photos / texts throughout the day, which I really appreciated. The best part was the adorable Thanksgiving day craft she did with M., complete with a foot-print turkey! She really was a blessing to have in our home. Highly recommended - 10/10!

Vera is Amazing!!! I highly recommend her. As a parent, you are skeptical and worried whom you may leave your child or children with and Vera made it easy for me.. 
My son really likes her and that puts me at ease..


Vera was fantastic. Her experience was obvious, and she did a great job with our twin daughters. In fact, the first words from one of our daughters the morning after Vera left was "Where's Vera?  I like Vera!  Where is she?"

There is nothing more I can add that will speak more loudly than the compliments of a 2.5 year old.  She's great!
