Hello, My name is Keri, I'm a non-smoker, I have a reliable car, and I'm also a mom myself. I have CPR and First Aid certifications.
I have worked with children for over 25+ years. My career with children started as a teenager and has continued until now. I have been a Babysitter, Nanny, Lead Preschool Teacher, and an Afterschool activities Leader. The children's ages have ranged from infant to elementary school-aged. Some of the children I have cared for have had physical or learning disabilities and some have had significant trauma in their lives. 
I enjoy working with the parents. I thrive on knowing what you expect and how I can help. I HIGHLY VALUE honest, transparent communication with the parents. 
I look forward to hearing from you and thank you for reading!

Keri watched our 3yo daughter Wed-Fri for 2 months. She was always on time, never called out, and was very flexible with our wants and needs. Unfortunately we were forced to change our expenses which then changed our childcare budget. Keri would be a benefit for any family. 

Keri was great with the kids, and got them all tired out and to bed without issues. She’s very kind and I can tell she’s had a lot of experience looking after kids of various ages. 

I could not be happier with the level of care that my children receive from Kerri. She demonstrates trustworthiness and thoughtfulness in all her interactions. Kerri effectively manages and engages with both my two-year-old and 10-month-old, ensuring their safety and entertainment. When she is with my girls I know I have nothing to worry about and can enjoy my time away. 

Keri is kind hearted, punctual, and reliable. Both my dog and son adore her. He has a big smile on his face wherever Keri comes through the front door. She plays with him, reads to him, and follows the instructions we have given her in regards to his schedule. Reads his cues well. She's receptive and collaborative. I highly recommend Keri for your babysitting and/nannying needs. She is awesome!



Keri is an incredible, loving, devoted, thoughtful and conscientious nanny. We cannot say enough good things about her. If you are reading this, it means you're probably considering hiring her -- don't read further. Just hire her. 

We hired Keri to be a full time (8:00am - 4:00pm) nanny for our sixteen month old daughter. We had just moved to a new city and our daughter was in a new environment, with a new nanny. For the first two weeks, our daughter was very fussy and upset. But Keri calmly and thoughtfully helped our daughter through the change, formed a sweet and loving bond with her. Soon, our daughter loved spending time with Keri. Keri had to move and our daughter had to start school, so sadly we had to go our separate ways, but if there was any way we could have kept working with her, we would have! Don't miss hiring her yourself!

Keri helped me out twice while I was in town and she was a great fit for our family. We spoke over the phone and then met in person. She committed to my job weeks in advance and was very dependable in all aspects including communication, punctuality, and being respectful of our needs/routine.  She seems to have a lot of experience and is comfortable in her skill set. We look forward to using her services again next time we are in town.

Keri was a lovely and happy sitter for our two boys while visiting Palm Desert. They enjoyed being with Keri and looked forward to seeing her each day.

Keri is absolutely incredible! Always such a delight with our son and so personable with us and easy to be around. Definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for a nanny/babysitter!

Keri was a wonderful babysitter for our 4 children! We are visiting from Seattle and hired Keri to babysit during our visit to the area. She was punctual, respectful, caring and so kind! Our children were immediately comfortable around her and excited for their evening. She asked our preferences on meal time, bed time and house rules. It was evident she wanted to give our children a fun evening, while also making sure she followed any specific requests. She was easy going, flexible and it was clear she loves caring for kids. She even brought them a special treat and of course asked us if it was okay for them to have it after dinner. She is truly lovely! The kids adored her. We are so grateful we know her and will absolutely hire her again!

Keri is amazing! She was on time and took very good care of my two kids. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her care in the near future!

Keri is amazing. The children love her, she is always on time,  organized, has fun things for them to do and is actively engaged! She is not gonna be sitting them in front of a TV and vegging out, she is in tune with them, has them laughing, doing art, and just having fun. Truly, when she is with the kids, I am free to do what I need or even want to do care free because I know they are safe and happy. Thank you Keri!!!!

We had a great experience with Keri! We had her watch our 2 children (2 1/2 year old boy and 7 month daughter) and they both took to her quickly.  She arrived on time and even brought our son a little present to help him warm up to her. She texted us throughout the day letting me know what was going on with the kids which I appreciated. We are already looking to hire her again!

Keri responded to our post on very short notice (last minute trip!) She showed up promptly and with an art project for our two and four-year-old. She immediately made efforts to try to make them comfortable, and left my husband and I feeling ABSOLUTELY ready to go out for me an evening without worry I would 100% recommend and use Keri again when we are in Palm Springs. And please feel free to ask Keri for my number for a reference !

I will definitely be hiring Keri again! My kids love her and want her to come back and play. She even brought books that she thought my kids would like, which they did! I felt comfortable with Keri and she texted with pictures which is always great when you're away from your kids.  I would definitely recommend Keri to anyone who needs a caring and dependable sitter!

My boys just adore Keri! She always gives them so much attention! What is so nice as a parent is seeing not only are my children happy but safe. I have a one year old and a three year old and Keri always makes sure the environment is clean and free of hazards. I'm so happy to have Keri caring for my children and would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter or nanny.

She is very good with young children and communicating with parents and children.
