About Helen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Helen. I'm a newly retired Police Officer who is highly trained in many areas. CPR to Executive Protection Training. I also have 22 nieces and nephews that I have helped raise along with my step children. Since Retiring I have been blessed to Nanny/Babysit many children from Newborns to Teenagers, including Children with Special Needs. I have endless patience and Love for children. I am very interactive with the children as well. Outside activities, arts and crafts, reading books, and also getting on the ground with the kids to play trucks or Barbie's. I am available to drive children to dance/karate class etc., help with light housekeeping, laundry and run errands if needed. I can travel and work weekends if needed. I have many references.

I can’t say enough positive things about Helen. I believe that the universe brings people into your life exactly when you need them. We were in a pinch to find a nanny after our then current nanny found a full-time position. Helen literally came to our rescue. She is prompt, professional, kind and respectful of how we raise our children. She has a friendly and upbeat persona when working with the kids, which makes it much easier for them to learn and execute on their age appropriate responsibilities. She communicates early and often on the status of the kids. She also communicates upfront any planned vacations or time away so that we can effectively plan to cover that time. Helen truly has become part of our family. So much so that when Helen was not working, our kids always ask where Miss Helen is and when they will see her again. I would recommend Helen to all of my close and friends and family!
