Experience: 9 yrs
Hello! My name is Yolanda, and I'm a dedicated childcare professional with over 9 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, and toddlers. I'm a licensed baby nurse, CPR/First Aid certified, and have completed the 15-hour Health & Safety training. I also hold a degree in Occupational Studies and Massage Therapy, which gives me extra insight into child development. I specialize in newborn care including feeding, diapering, bottle prep, soothing, tummy time, and setting healthy sleep schedules. I also offer overnight care. With toddlers, I assist with meals, bath time, homework, and fun activities like trips to the park or library. I bring warmth, reliability, and a genuine love for nurturing little ones. If you think I'd be a great fit for your family, I'd love to connect!

Our family has had the pleasure of having Yolanda as our child’s caregiver for the past two years, and she has been extraordinary. From when our daughter was 6 months old to now at 2.5 years old, Yolanda has been instrumental in her development. She helped our daughter reach key milestones, like walking and talking for the first time. Yolanda even took it upon herself to learn some baby sign language, which really helped our daughter in expressing herself before she knew how to talk. I really feel that Yolanda is a big reason why our daughter is the happy, silly, kind, and bright kid she is today. Yolanda is communicative, reliable, and attentive. Her kind nature and her genuine love for children, comes across in everything she does. We cant recommend her highly enough. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat if we could!
