With over 16 years of childcare experience, I bring a wealth of expertise to every family I work with. As a dedicated nanny for multiple years, I've had the pleasure of nurturing children from various backgrounds and ages, fostering their growth and development in safe and loving environments. My experience extends to providing overnight care, ensuring both the children and parents feel confident and secure. Beyond traditional childcare roles, I've spent 5 years as a children's party entertainer, embodying multiple well-known princesses, superheroes, and other characters. This experience has equipped me with creative and engaging activities to spark joy and imagination in every child. Additionally, I am a passionate private lessons teacher for voice and piano, having taught numerous children and witnessing their musical talents blossom. My background as a summer camp counselor and tutoring experience further enriches my ability to connect with and inspire young minds. I excel at engaging children through crafts, imagination play, and music, while also offering homework help to support their academic journey. I also have experience with a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and more. I am committed to providing exceptional care and support to your family, creating meaningful and memorable experiences for your children.

Hi, I'm a dedicated childcare professional, preschool teacher, and proud mom who genuinely loves helping children learn, grow, and feel safe and supported. Families describe me as kind, dependable, communicative, and easy to work with. I believe strong relationships with both children and parents are built on trust, transparency, and open communication, and those are values I bring to every family I work with. I have a background in psychology and hold two Associate degrees in Child Development with concentrations in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. My experience includes working as a preschool teacher, babysitter, nanny, and mother, giving me a well-rounded understanding of children's developmental, emotional, and educational needs. I'm an outdoorsy, creative, and affectionate caregiver who loves singing, dancing, reading stories, making art, and turning everyday moments into fun learning opportunities. I enjoy following children's interests while creating routines that help them feel secure, confident, and engaged. Childcare has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My mother worked as a nanny in different parts of the world, and I was fortunate to grow up alongside the families she cared for. Watching her taught me the importance of patience, flexibility, and building meaningful connections with children and parents alike. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have a clear background check and fingerprint clearance, and am committed to providing the highest level of care. Whether you need occasional support or a long-term caregiver, I would love the opportunity to be a trusted, nurturing presence in your child's life. I look forward to connecting with your family!

“Kimberly was an incredible babysitter for our son Van! From the moment we connected, she was kind, caring, and professional. She kept us updated throughout the evening with thoughtful texts and adorable pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares and is passionate about what she does. Van was comfortable and happy with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Kimberly is everything we were hoping for in a sitter—and more. We will absolutely be using her again (and again)!”

As a childcare provider I offer Experience and enthusiasm. More about me: Since 2020 I have provided quality care to 12 families and 19 children ranging in age from 3 months to 11 years. I usually work with two families at a time, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I am currently looking for a new morning position, as I am fully booked on weekday afternoons. I am professional, consistent, reliable, dynamic and simultaneously fun/silly. In addition to keeping your children happy and safe my goal is to ease as many household burdens as possible before you get home.

“Anna Kate has been working with us over the past 3 months as our nanny for our 2.5 year old daughter. Anna Kate is caring and conscientious in her care for our daughter and flexible in adjusting her approach to our particular preferences. She is also someone who we find cautious and trustworthy with respect to limiting risk of exposure to Covid-19. She is open with us about her exposures and was mindful of our safety. Anna Kate is invested in our daughters growth and development, working with her to teach her many new things and take her on outdoor adventures to the playground, dog park, kids space museum, parks, library, etc. Anna Kate encourages her to do arts and crafts, painting, chalk, water play, neighborhood walks, story time and music. We enjoy having Anna Kate care for our daughter. She is very helpful around the house and assists with grocery lists/shopping, cooking, laundry, dishes, organizing and cleaning. ”
