About Thays

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello families! My name is Thays, I'm a professional nanny and former teacher with over 12 years of experience caring for children from 2 months to 14 years old. I'm passionate about creating a safe, loving, and structured environment where children can grow and feel confident. My background in education helps me support children's development through play-based learning, engaging activities, and consistent routines. I also stay updated by taking courses and learning about children's needs at each stage. I have strong experience with infants, including tummy time, sensory play, and helping establish healthy sleep routines. I gently encourage babies to sleep in their own crib and support independence in a respectful way. I'm reliable, patient, and attentive to children's environments, always keeping their spaces clean and organized. I'm comfortable with parents who work from home, love animals, and value open communication and honesty with families! :)

My husband and I recently hired Thays to care for our 2.5 year old child during evening hours once per week on a regular basis, and it's been a wonderful experience. Thays is responsible for playing with / entertaining our child, managing her bedtime routine, putting her down to sleep, and cleaning up her dinner. Thays is caring, considerate, and empathetic to our child's needs and our child often asks when the next time is that she'll get to play with Thays, so it's obvious to us that she has a great time with her. Thays is a proactive and considerate communicator with my husband and me and is flexible with our schedule, which we appreciate. During her care hours, she sends us updates via text which gives us peace of mind while we're away and makes us feel completely comfortable. We also have a dog who is very fond of Thays (doesn't miss an opportunity to nap on her lap after bedtime).
