Hi! I'm a dependable, compassionate childcare professional with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and experience as a nanny, preschool teacher, and behavioral therapist. I've worked with children from infancy through elementary school, including those with autism, ADHD, OCD, anxiety, and other developmental differences. I love creating a safe, structured, and engaging environment through crafts, outdoor play, reading, and learning activities tailored to each child's needs. I take pride in the bonds I form with each child and the memories we make together. I'm currently seeking a nanny, tutor, or family assistant/house manager position while I return to school part-time (PM). In addition to childcare, I'm happy to help with homework, meal prep, transportation, children's laundry, light housekeeping, organization, errands, and household routines. Families describe me as warm, patient, organized, dependable, and proactive, and I strive to be a trusted, positive presence in every home.
Courtney worked with our family during her senior year of high school, babysitting for our 3 and 6 year olds, 5 days a week during after school hours. Courtney was fantastic, my kids loved her and miss her now that she's away at college! She picked them up at school everyday, was very active with them, took them places to play as well as engaged with them at home. She is playful, active, and helpful as there were many times where we asked for some help with prepping dinner, straightening up around the house, etc. Courtney was also always very flexible if we needed her to stay a little late, or even work extra hours on short notice. The only reason we are not using Courtney this summer is because my husband is a teacher and will be home with our kids, otherwise we would take her in a minute!
