Health & Safety Note: Because I often care for 2–3 different families in a single day, I do my best to keep everyone healthy and safe. For this reason, I’m not able to provide care for sick children or in homes where someone is currently unwell (cold, flu, fever, cough, etc.). If I arrive and notice signs of illness that I wasn’t informed about in advance, I may need to step away from the booking to avoid the risk of spreading anything to other children and families. Thank you so much for your understanding and support in keeping everyone well! ❤️ I’m a caring and experienced nanny with over 15 years of working with children of all ages — from tiny newborns to busy school-aged kids. I’ve worn many hats over the years: babysitter, summer camp group leader, and even some families trusted to help interview and choose the right nanny. I truly love what I do and always aim to create a warm, safe, and loving space where children can feel secure and thrive. Supporting parents and becoming a trusted part of the family is the heart of my work.
Hi there, I am a fully vaccinated career nanny who is seeking occasional childcare positions! I have 12 years experience working with all ages from newborns to teenagers and am passionate a lot chid froth and development! I am a professional, attentive, caring, warm and loving career nanny who has all 12 early childhood units, CPR/First Aid certifications and am preschool teacher qualified. During my time with children, I find moments to teach emotional intelligence and mindfulness, as I am passionate about children learning about their emotions and how to regulate them. This looks like fun, deep breathing exercises, and narrating/identifying the big emotions I notice they are feeling. Additionally, part of my care is taking them on outside adventures, making crafts, playing board games, helping with homework, reading together and engaging in the fun activities your child enjoys! I look forward to working with you and your family :)
“Sylena was super kind an super patient with my two year old. My daughter had a broken leg and Sylena handled it wonderfully. My daughter had a great time and kept asking the next day if she would come back to play! ”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
