Experience: 10 yrs
I am a licensed RN who is a bit burnt out & looking for a family ideally needing short-term care. I love to get the kids out every day, whether that is to a park, a pool, the library, the zoo, or a festival. I am experienced with ages 2 months-12 years, siblings, & nanny shares. I love reading, pretend play, being active, mediating conflict, & setting up an enriching environment for kids of all ages. My style is goofy with clear boundaries. I like working with kids because they help you see the world through different eyes & connect with your own excitement. I love helping explain things, teaching skills to help regulate feelings, & being a predictable & safe adult for a child. I started working with kids when I was one myself. I have 10+ years as a nanny & occasional preschool teacher & spend lots of my free time with my 4. 5-year-old niece & 21-month-old nephew. I'm very comfortable with pets! I am reliable & do not spend time on social media.
I was nervous to use care.com and Heather instantly made me feel comfortable. My 3 yo son loved her and asks for her to come back. Our dogs love her, too! She is great with communication and provided lots of updates which helped put me at ease.
