About Heather

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi, I'm Heather. I have worked as a nanny and babysitter for many years, since I was in middle/high school. I have worked a social worker for 15 years. I miss working with children in the home. I have been a night nanny for a newborn and newborn twins, as well. I enjoy children newborn to age 12 or so. I have experience with children who have special needs, medication or mental health issues. I love animals and am happy to help with them. Please ask any questions you may have! Thanks so much! As a nurturing and experienced childcare provider with over a decade of experience, I'm passionate about creating a safe and nurturing environment for children to thrive. Open communication with parents is essential to me. I provide regular updates on their child's day, whether verbally at pickup or through text or phone calls, depending on the parents' preferred method. I firmly believe in the importance of consistency and routine, and I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules.
