Hello my name is Rachel and I have over 15 years of experience working with children ages 5 months to 17 years. I have been both a full-time nanny and date night sitter, as well as a private tutor. I also have experience working as a teacher's aide in a preschool. I have two college degrees: One in Child Development and Education, and one in Social and Behavioral Sciences. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I am very honest, dependent, trustworthy, and kind. I pride myself in delivering excellent one-on-one care and thoroughly enjoy working with children. I also like to encourage active and imaginative play over screen time.
“Rachel cared for our 7-month-old for three full workdays while daycare was closed. She did a wonderful job with naps, feedings, and interactive play during his wake windows. We would happily use her again!”
