Experience: 10 yrs
I started babysitting children at age 11, after taking a certified babysitting course, and being trained in First Aid/CPR. I have done nannying and babysitting jobs most of my life, and I am currently nannying for 6-mo-old boy/girl twins. Previously, I served in a household manager role. I nannied for 6 families during graduate school, and I have spent quite a bit of time with children of varying levels of Autism spectrum disorders, as well as other special needs. I have volunteered in my free time, as a social worker, and built up programming for urban youth and children with a host of issues related to trauma, behaviors, etc., as well as having worked with inpatient delinquent youth for one year. I have also always taught youth programming for most of my life, or volunteered with children in some form, since I was 14 years old, through church or other volunteer opportunities. I spent 3 years as a child protective services case manager, helping abused and neglected children, as well.

My wife and I have hired Rachel as a date-night sitter on multiple occasions for our three-year old daughter, and she also sat for us overnight while we were out of town once. We've worked with Rachel for about two years now, and definitely plan to continue working with her. Rachel is extremely kind and patient, and you can tell right away that she has a very good demeanor for working with children. Our daughter loves Rachel, and loves singing songs with her and playing games. It's always really nice knowing that she is in good hands when we have to go out for the evening. I have always appreciated Rachel's professionalism. She is always punctual and responsive, and easy to work with as well. I would not hesitate to recommend Rachel for any caregiver position.
