About Dawn

Experience: 10 yrs

I'm passionate about nurturing the growth and development of children. With 15 years of experience, I have a proven track record of providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for children. My patient and calm demeanor, combined with my creativity and imagination, allows me to connect with children on a deep level. I prioritize open communication with parents, ensuring that I understand their expectations and concerns. I provide regular updates on their child's day and promptly address any issues that arise. I am confident in enforcing household rules with consistency and kindness. My experience includes playing a variety of games with children, from outdoor sports to board games and puzzles. In addition to childcare, I can assist with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I have a car and am a non-smoker.

There aren’t enough words - she’s priceless. Came on extremely short notice, punctual, good communication, easy to work with. My adult daughter has an extremely broken rib & no family in town. Embarrassed to admit, Dawn took better care of her than I would have. She cooked, cleaned, ran errands, kept her hydrated & in bed, (she even cleaned the bunny hutch for her) and she was GENTLE and KIND. My daughter felt truly cared for. I’ve never hired a caretaker before, this could have gone south in a lot of ways, but Dawn was truly a blessing. I’m keeping her number just in case. Very grateful for her. I can’t recommend her enough.
