NICU Registered Nurse with more than 20 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, and children. I specialize in newborn and infant care, including overnight newborn support, care for premature infants, and helping families adjust during the early weeks at home. As a mother of three and an experienced healthcare professional, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, calm, and dependable to care for your child. Families can feel confident knowing their children are in capable, experienced hands. I am available for date nights, occasional childcare, overnight newborn care, and recurring childcare needs. My hospital schedule varies, but I can often accommodate advance scheduling and ongoing arrangements. Outside of work, I enjoy horseback riding, gardening, and spending time with my family.
My name is Skylar, I am currently a college student majoring in dental hygiene. I have plenty of experience with kids and pets since I was 14. I am very attentive and mindful when watching children and I practice with them in terms of communication, emotional regulation/support, and of course safety! I also carefully abide by any medication, eating, and bed time schedules. I strive to allow parents to go out on the town again knowing their babies are safe with hourly updates!!

My name is Keidy and you can think of me as your Swiss Army knife of child care. Not only am I backed by years of experience and multiple first aid certifications, but my love of children (especially the furry ones) as well! If you give me the opportunity I will protect and entertain your little one while youāre out being super mom/ dad!
āKeidy was a pleasure to have and demonstrated excellent attention to detail while caring for my six-month-old dog and my seven-year-old niece, who can be quite a handful.ā
