About Ashley
Experience: 9 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
*looking for a start date in summer or fall 2025* I have been with a wonderful family for six years caring for their three children, and I'm ready to look for something closer to home as the youngest will begin full days at school. I have over 10 years of experience working with families as a nanny, both with parents who work from home and with families out of the home. I also studied early childhood development in undergrad and have a Master's in Literature from University of New Hampshire. I've been trained as a birth doula and a newborn care specialist. I love observing children outdoors, watching their curiosity take them to new and interesting places, and so I try to get out as much as possible! I also like to reach out to the local community for activities with children, including libraries and museums. I look forward to exploring and growing with your family!

Ashley nannied/abysit my then 4 year old son full-time for approximately 9 months. She was about the best caregiver we have had. My son (now almost 7) still remembers and asks for her to come over. To be brief I would give Ashley a 5/5 in the following qualities which I find absolutely necessary in a nanny/sitter: 1. Reliability, always showed up when scheduled, showed up on time and ready to go 2. Presence: Ashley was always fully present when caring for my son (wasn't on the phone, wasn't distracted, patience) 3. Level of concern and care: Ashley did everything from play games at home with my son to packed picnic lunches, which is part of the reason my son misses her so much 4. High level of professionalism and maturity,including picking up after herself and my son I am so glad to have had her in our home and highly recommend her for any job. Christine C.
