I have a wealth of experience working with children, spanning from my hometown to my current role as a nanny for two spirited children. My background encompasses caring for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I pride myself on being patient, adaptable, and nurturing while maintaining strong organizational skills. I understand that caring for children can be challenging, but I always strive to meet the unique needs of each family. I am passionate about fostering creativity through screen-free activities such as music, dance, and arts and crafts, ensuring a fun and enriching environment.

I am here to fill in the gaps, occasionally acting as a mother’s helper, and fully vaccinated! 20 + years of experience as a nanny/caregiver, who is BLS/CPR Certified with additional certifications to serve in healthcare. With that being said, I am superb at multitasking with kids of all ages, including pre-mature, middle school age, and teenagers in addition to having more than one child in my care. Major help is provided with meal preps, for example, breakfast, lunch, and dinner including assistance with homework assignments, projects, if necessary. Parents, my job is to make your daily plus and I am open to driving kids to and from activities in family cars. I am very passionate about my job, which leads to me being very reliable, loyal, humble, dedicated, trustworthy which initially helpful to have honest open communication with both parents. I love to teach, discipline, and interact with the kids at all times, with lots of patience. Priorities are to be discussed with parents, to make sure that I meet each and everyone needs at all given times, for example: making sure the kids environment are always safe, favorite activities, bed routines, allergy reaction, and if any medication is needed to be administered at my present time...Parents, if you are looking for a fun, respectable, responsible, reliable, humble trustworthy caregiver! Remember, I am here for you! Why?? To make your life routine with childcare a bit more relaxing and stress-free!

Valentia is fantastic! 1st time sitting for us and she's coming back tomorrow!!

Hi, I’m Noor☺️! I’m a caring, patient, and energetic graduate community college student with experience caring for children from infants to school age. I used to work part-time at a daycare for 5+ years and also babysit for several families, giving me hands-on experience with routines, playtime, meals, naps, and creating a safe, positive environment for kids of all ages. I love keeping children engaged through crafts, pretend play, outdoor walks, playground trips, and fun activities that encourage creativity and learning. Families describe me as dependable, attentive, and easy to communicate with. In addition to childcare, I also have experience with dog sitting and dog walking, so I’m very comfortable around pets! My goal is always to make children feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I truly enjoy building strong connections with both kids and families, and I’m excited to help however I can :)

Noor has been absolutely incredible. She showed such comforting level of care for our high energy toddler. She is always incredibly sweet, kind, and emotionally intelligent towards our daughter and even managed to create an immediate comfort with our other child who is severely disabled and limited in his ability to interact. Our family could not recommend Noor enough, she will always be welcomed in our home.
