Hi ! I’m Shantel. I’ve supported several families as a trusted babysitter and night nanny, providing hundreds of hours of overnight infant and newborn care. You’ll find me flexible and easy-going. I genuinely care about nurturing kids and watching them grow and change as they experience the world ❤️ I’d love to help you out if I can. As an RN, nothing is too messy, complicated or overwhelming.
