Reliable babysitter and dog sitter you can count on
Hi! I’m Lucy who loves looking over animals and kids. Whether 5 years of looking over dogs or 4 years looking over kids I’ve learned that trust is built over consistency and patience. I can’t wait to meet you and your little ones or pets.
I am someone who first and foremost values respectful and responsive care as the foundation of effective childcare. No child is the exact same and I recognize the importance of offering care that supports them as the unique and wonderful people they are while they learn and grow. My approach is integrative of the best parts of different methods and tailored based on the unique needs, preferences, and goals of the family I work with. I have many years of experience with infants, toddlers, and school age children both as a nanny and in a daycare environment. Infants and toddlers are my favorite age to work with and where I have the most experience but I enjoy facilitating growth in all ages. Currently, I am working as an infant teacher in a daycare but would prefer to shift back into offering a more attentive and personalized childcare experience to families as a nanny. I know how hard it is to trust someone else with your child and I would be honored to be considered!

The Nanny Who Shows Up, Stays Consistent, and Makes Every Day Easier for Parents
Hi families! I’m Sarah the kind of caregiver who turns everyday moments into learning, laughter, and connection. I’ve spent 10+ years working with children through nannying, preschool teaching, and homeschooling, and I love creating activities that help kids grow emotionally, academically, and socially.
I bring structure when it’s needed, empathy when big feelings show up, and a warm, calm energy that helps kids feel comfortable right away. Whether we’re doing crafts, practicing early literacy, exploring outside, or building routines that work, I show up fully and consistently for the families I support.
