About Kim
Experience: 10 yrs
I love young children and feel privileged to form relationships with them and to be part of their development. I babysat in high school and college and was a live-in nanny in graduate school. After pursuing other interests, I went back to nannying about 15 years ago. My professional experience includes all ages, including newborns. I also have two daughters of my own who are now in college. I am playful, funny, resourceful, and very capable. I am reliable and very good at resolving issues. I am engaged and love to read, sing, and accompany children as they explore their world. I am currently looking for a full-time position in a Covid-cautious household to begin in September 2022.
Most recent review
Kim has been taking care of child in our home since she was 9 months old. Kim is attentive, responsible, calm and warm, balancing fun and safety seamlessly. She been a wonderful source of information and inspiration when it comes to everything from age-appropriate toys to finding creative ways to encourage our little one to explore new sensations, foods, and meet developmental milestones in a joyful and gentle way. She has a wealth of experience with child development that has been incredibly helpful to us as new parents over the course of the last year. Our little one now excitedly asks if Kim is coming to play in the morning. We are confident that our child is happy, safe and well taken care of under her care.
