"Amina came and helped us out when our babysitter canceled last minute. She was great with our kids. Even our 11 month old son who has stranger anxiety warmed up to her."

$22 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I'm Claire & I've been a nanny for the last 20 years, working with 15 families & 24 kids between the ages of 8 weeks & 16 years. My favorite age to work with are toddlers-they're so curious & constantly learning! I strongly believe in teaching kids to express their feelings in healthy ways, while treating the others around them with kindness & respect. I'm enthusiastic about outdoor adventures, creative indoor activities, & learning through play! Pets are important members of families & I'm very animal friendly! However, I am allergic to cats & have a hard time working in homes especially with multiple cats &/or longhairs for extended periods.
“Claire is a warm and caring nanny! She is dependable and reliable. She cared for my children starting when they were newborns and is still a trusted adult for my 18 year old. She's wonderful with kids of any age and very patient with kids who have high needs (like my neurodivergent youngest child).”
Paige $20 per hour for 1 child
I’m a warm, reliable, and experienced caregiver with 5+ years of childcare experience. I’ve cared for infants, toddlers, and school aged children, and I truly love helping children learn, grow, and feel comfortable. I’m CPR & First Aid certified, have experience with household tasks, meal prep, and keeping children on routines. I hope to build a long term career working with families. I’m dependable, patient, creative, and always strive to make every family I work with feel supported and cared for!

She will be an invaluable presence in any family’s life.”
