Hi! I'm Heather-a dependable, compassionate mom of three (two now adults) with a lifetime of hands-on childcare experience. Caring for children has never felt like a job to me; it's simply part of who I am. I'm patient, playful, calm under pressure, and genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and feel safe being exactly who they are. I believe every child deserves to be treated with kindness, respect, and encouragement, and I'm committed to creating an inclusive, affirming environment where families of all backgrounds feel welcome. Whether we're reading stories, exploring outdoors, tackling homework, or creating art projects, I strive to make each day engaging and full of connection. I'm reliable, flexible, and happy to work with families to find a schedule that meets everyone's needs. I look forward to becoming someone your children are excited to see and someone you can trust completely.
I had the pleasure of working with Heather as we coached a youth junior cheerleading team together. Throughout the season, I had the opportunity to see firsthand how naturally she connected with the kids. Heather is a natural nurturer with an amazing ability to balance structure, spontaneity, and silliness, creating an environment where children feel both supported and excited to learn. She is patient, kind, dependable, and always made each child feel encouraged, included, and valued while helping them build confidence and have fun. Heather was reliable, communicated well, and consistently brought a calm, positive attitude to every practice. It was clear that she genuinely cared about each child and wanted them to succeed both as cheerleaders and as individuals. I would confidently recommend Heather to any family looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and responsible nanny. Any child would be lucky to have her, and I have no doubt she would provide a safe, caring, and nurturing environment.
