About Rachael

Experience: 10 yrs

I have 10+ years of professional childcare experience and am a certified postpartum doula. I'm currently looking for families who need long-term occasional care or one day a week of nanny support. My ideal fit is a toddler, with plenty of opportunities to get out of the house for park trips, library story times, and other local activities that help build confidence and social skills before preschool. For postpartum families, I'm accepting short-term daytime contracts (1-6 months). Visits are typically 4-6 hours and can be scheduled on weekdays or weekends, depending on your family's needs. If it sounds like we might be a good fit, send me a message-I'd be happy to chat and answer any questions!

So great with my 4 and 7 year old! Knows the city really well. Jumped on a phone call to introduce herself and I felt totally reassured in ten seconds, then she took them to the Exploratorium for the day and they had a great time. Will absolutely hire again if she's available!
