Dear Families, My name is Sally, and I am a compassionate, reliable nanny with 20 years of experience in childcare. My background as a preschool teacher, along with Montessori training, has given me a strong foundation in child development and age-appropriate activities. I am passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive. I am CPR and First Aid certified, up to date with my COVID and flu vaccinations, and experienced in creating and maintaining structured schedules and routines. I excel in organizing age-appropriate, educational activities and games that foster social, emotional, and cognitive development. As a nanny, I will:    •   Ensure a safe, positive environment for your children at all times.    •   Plan engaging and educational activities tailored to their developmental needs.    •   Prepare meals and snacks that align with dietary preferences and restrictions.    •   Follow nap schedules and daily routines to support consistency.    •   Communicate openly with parents regarding progress, concerns, and milestones. I am also comfortable around animals, making me a great fit for families with pets. My goal is to provide peace of mind for parents and create a happy, enriching experience for your children. I look forward to the opportunity to meet your family and discuss how I can contribute to your children’s care and development. Warm regards, Sally

I’m a 30 year old Irish, Mathematics and Science Teacher. I have 8 years full time teaching experience and I have worked with children most of my life. I come from a large family, of which I am the eldest and so helped my parents with my 4 younger siblings. I was a member of the Red Cross at home and I am comfortable with First Aid and CPR. I am a very active person and love to be busy and outdoors. I’m a punctual and professional person yet caring and loving. I am currently employed as a full time teacher in a local Catholic school. I can provide references if required. Looking forward to meeting you and your kids!

Paula was so fantastic - my kids loved her, and she was communicative and kind with their big energy. Thank you Paula!

I am back in the North Bay and will be here until early October. I miss babysitting little ones and look forward to working with you if we are a good fit :) My husband and I have been traveling the world for over 4 years. Because I love babies & toddlers, I still want to babysit while on the road. I mostly work with kids between the ages of 6 months to 2. The calendar may not show all my availability. Please reach out if you like my profile. Thanks for your consideration! I worked in the corporate sector focused on finance until 2015 when I left my position at salesforce. Have been self employed since. I decided to become a babysitter because I love children and generally well liked by them. It’s how I get my kids fix :) I tend to become their playmate but will set boundaries when it comes to their safety and well being. I am a foodie and love to cook. My husband and I eat mostly organic food that we make in our own kitchen. I can definitely whip up a healthy delicious meal for your little ones! Cancellation Policy: I am flexible on time adjustments and cancellations as I understand unexpected situations arise. As long as I am available, I will accept extensions and if you need to cancel partial or entire bookings, I do not have any minimum charge or advance notice requirements. I will only charge for hours worked.

Shirley was very trustworthy, knowledgeable, helpful and adaptable. Look forward to having Shirley over again soon!
