About Rachel
Experience: 10 yrs
Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is a joy. With over 20 years of experience and a background as a teacher and social worker, I provide dedicated care for children. I hold Parents as Teachers, First Aid, and CPR certifications, to ensure a safe and developmentally ideal environment. My approach is patient, creative, and calm, whether we are playing board games, engaging in educational activities, or heading outdoors to play. I am also comfortable enforcing household rules and prioritize clear, consistent communication through your preferred method. Looking forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life!
Most recent review
It is nice to have help from an experienced mom who is familiar with the community and has extensive experience working with kids of all ages. We absolutely plan to continue to have Rachel help us with our kids as needed and highly recommend her. She is easy to communicate with, open to last-minute care when she is available, and has no problem keeping kids entertained without the use of screens (which is a major plus for us!) We have two really young children and Rachel is able to wrangle two toddlers at once, including naps and bedtimes, meals, etc. no problem. Thanks, Rachel!
