This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 20 yrs
I am an active 60-year-old, non-smoking mom of an amazing grown daughter and Grammy to 2 beautiful grandsons. I've cared for several different families over the years, primarily for infants as young as 2 weeks old. The majority of the babies have been approx 10-12 weeks old when I have started to care for them. I am extremely experienced in infant care, am familiar with all the latest gadgets and am comfortable in any setting. I can offer excellent references and would be happy to chat on phone or meet! My goal is to keep your child/children safe and happy. I love teaching the little ones and helping them develop their motor skills- picking up food, holding their bottle, using a spoon. I get excited when they start learning how to use their toys-stacking rings, learning shapes etc. I am all about helping your child develop! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to set up a time to discuss your needs and learn more about me. Cheers!

Brenda was hired as a full-time nanny for our son starting at 4 months old, when I returned to work after maternity leave. From the beginning, she has been a reliable, fun, helpful, and caring nanny. She is always open to feedback and adjusts to our desires as parents (ie minimal screen time, specific nap routines, etc). As new parents, she was helpful in co-navigating different phases like transitioning from 1 nap to 2, or starting on solid foods. We truly see her as our partner in caring for our son - like a part of our family. It gave me great peace of mind as a new mom to have our son in our home every day, where I could be involved, but also trust Brenda's wealth of experience in keeping our son happy and healthy. She keeps open lines of communication and has always been flexible and accommodating with time off, our vacations, or family coming to visit (she is reasonable and easy to negotiate with if extenuating circumstances arise, such as illness, etc). And of course I should mention our son absolutely ADORES her!! They share a really special bond, which makes the relationship we have with her even sweeter. We recommend Brenda to anyone looking for a full-time nanny!
