About Lani
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a licensed teacher and love working with children. I have been a nanny to children from 1-15 years of age and adults with Down syndrome for the past five years. I have a fun loving daughter who is almost five and a laid back 3-month-old. The family I have worked with for the past two years moved away so I am looking to find another good fit! I love being outdoors, going to the library and local YMCA, and attending events in our community.

Lani is a Godsend! She took care of my sister who has Down syndrome for a year. She adhered to my sister's goals of financial literacy, health and fitness, and community involvement. Her history as an educator was evident and very beneficial. Lani was incredibly attentive and compassionate. She went out of her way to accommodate my sister's health concerns. Lani was terrific in communicating with me. She sent me photos and updates throughout her shift. I never worried about my sister when she was with Lani. I would recommend Lani to anyone!
