I am the mother of 3 grown children. I just finished a full time nanny job with a 2-year-old boy whom I was with for 10 months. Before that, I took care of a 5-year-old boy from the time he was 3. Before that I was actively taking care of a 4 yr old girl since she was 7 months old preemie. Before that I was actively involved in taking care of twin boys from when they were 3 months old until they were 4 & 1/2. I'm very flexible fulfilling the needs of the household. I am reliable, responsible, nurturing, caring and honest. I love to sing, dance, do constructive play, arts and crafts and help with homework. I have taken care of children of all ages. I have experience with infants and toddlers and can change diapers, feed them, put down for naps and follow their schedules. I am also great with older children, and can help with homework, give them snacks and drive to sports or other activities. I have great driving record. My references and background check will be provided upon request.

We were the lucky family that Doreen picked in 2021. She was with us for two wonderful years; she is only looking for a new family now bc our son started kindergarten. Doreen is the most reliable nanny ever. She is not just on time, she's early. She is consistent, calm, patient, fun, and loving. Her entire focus was always on our son, helping him learn and grow. She gently guided all of us through the toddler transition to preschool kid- potty training, dropping the nap and pacifier- to learning to read and working on fine motor skills. She is the master of arts + crafts, sweeping in like Mary Poppins with her bag of crafts. Doreen is a kind disciplinarian, though rarely needed as she set the tone for appropriate behavior at the start. She is the ultimate experienced longtime nanny(with twins too!) Doreen is a safe driver- they were always off to museums, parks, playgrounds, and a weekly trip to the library. We hope to keep Doreen in our lives for years to come!
