Hi! I’m a caring, patient, and energetic caregiver who genuinely loves working with kids. I have experience with children of all ages and personalities, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable and included. I currently work at an after-school program, which has helped me build strong skills in staying organized, keeping kids engaged, and handling different situations calmly. I also volunteer on some Sundays at a children’s ministry at church, where I usually work with toddlers—so I’m very comfortable with younger kids as well! In my free time, I enjoy staying active and being outdoors, and I like bringing that same fun, positive energy when I’m with kids—whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, or just keeping them entertained and happy. I’m reliable, easygoing, and someone parents can trust to take great care of their kids while making sure they have a good time too!

Very professional and great w small children

I look forward to speaking with you :) Here is a letter of recommendation: “Anjali S. For any families looking for a nanny, sharing a recommendation for our nanny Laurel who has been caring for our twin girls who are 5 months old. Laurel has a ton of experience caring for children and was really great with our girls. She is extremely organized and on top of things which made communication very easy! She is very in tune on what milestones your baby is working towards and incorporates into their play time. Above all, I always felt at ease with our daughters under her care as she takes safety very seriously. She was a very calm and loving presence for our daughters and would highly recommend her to a family looking for child care.”

Laurel is absolutely a GEM!! She jumped right into playing with our active, vehicle loving 2-year-old, and he absolutely adored her. It was our first time having anyone over to care for him that is not family and we were nervous, but Laurel put us at ease right away with her intuitive, gentle nature and deep care and engagement with our son. We are so grateful we found Laurel, she is one-of-a-kind a wonderful at being with children.
