Experience: 10 yrs
Welcoming a newborn is such a special season, and I consider it a privilege to support families during these precious early months! With 14+ years of childcare experience, including 3 years specializing in overnight newborn care, I bring warmth, patience, and expertise to every home. I hold a B. A. in Psychology, with 12 credits in child development. I am certified in Pediatric & Adult CPR/First Aid. I hold a certification in SIDS prevention and safe sleep. I have experience in sleep training. I have cared for premies, assisted with circumcision care, gas/ acid reflux, & more. I understand the trust it takes to welcome someone into your home overnight. My goal is to create a peaceful, nurturing environment where your baby feels safe, loved, and comforted while you enjoy much-needed rest. I value discretion, professionalism, and building meaningful relationships with families. It would be an honor to care for your little one and support your family during this beautiful new chapter
We had initially hired Shannon to look after our child for a week, but she ended up being unavailable due to personal reasons. She gave us a few weeks heads up though and connected us with another nanny she knew who was available. Obviously not ideal, but things happen and I'm going to keep her in our babysitter rolodex for the future.
