Hi, I'm Ms. Karen, a former Early Childhood Educator. I have over 17 years of experience teaching children ages 6 wks to 12 yrs old.

Hi, I'm Marci! I bring nurture, patience, reliability, and a fun-loving demeanor. I enjoy going for walks, organizational projects, spending time with family, and exploring the city. Here to lighten your day-to-day load as an added extension of your family. I welcome collaboration, open communication, and friendly demeanors of all. I enjoy being a nanny knowing that I am helping foster environments and routines for families. Building connections with guardians and children that last past the job bring me a sense of joy. I've been fortunate to be able to build trust and provide quality care as professional nanny for more than 5 years. Although I've cared for children from infant to teen, my care of focus has centered around children under 2-years old. I'm versed in infant care; helping to create and incorporate consistent routines for sleep, feeding, changing, and development. Children thrive in my care because of my patience, attentiveness, and firm, but gentle boundaries. I create opportunities for little/big personalities to blossom with a sense of curiosity, confidence, and independence. Basic care needs pertaining to child(ren) are provided in a safe and proactive manner. Spaces used are maintained. All activites are incorporated and encouraged from educational activities, storytime, sensory play, arts & crafts, games, imaginative play, outdoor fun, and homework help. I'm allergic to cats. I look forward to collaborating working with your family! References available at request.

As a proud mother of two grown, independent adult children, my nest may be empty, but my heart is still completely full of love for little ones. Having successfully navigated the beautiful, chaotic journey of raising my own kids into adulthood, I find myself deeply missing the pure joy, curiosity, and laughter that only children bring. I am eager to channel that enduring warmth, patience, and experience into providing a safe, fun, and loving environment for your children.

I am a prek sped teacher and willing to work with special needs children or many at once but price may increase for multiples not special needs special prices. However, I want to have clear expectations. I am ell certified and almost a learning behavior specialist. I love art outdoors science and sports! I love to teach through hands on methods and do not raise my voice to children unless an emergency. If this happens, I’ll explain why to the child and tell you. I’m comfortable with many little ones. Thanks!
