Hello. Some background on me: I have an early childhood education degree from the University of Delaware. I have 10+ years combined nanny experience, in addition to over 16 yrs experience as a stay at home mom caring for my 2 children, 4 pets and all household responsibilities. I also have experience working as an office manager at an internet start up company, administrative assistant at University of Pennsylvania's Wharton Business School and have worked as an independent pet sitter. I have always enjoyed working with children, specifically teaching life skills and helping them to grow into well rounded happy individuals. I have experience with infants. I am looking for a family who can offer some flexibility in the schedule if needed.

As first-time parents navigating the delicate balance of work and caring for our newborn, we were fortunate to have Laurel as an integral part of our journey for 4 months before our baby started daycare. From the moment she stepped into our home, her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for children shone through. She cared for our baby, who was often fussy or going through different developmental changes, with great enthusiasm, smiles, and love, which made us feel so happy that baby was getting such caring attention. Laurel was incredibly reliable every day! She was always punctual, ensuring that our schedules were met and always gave us lots of notice if something had changed. Communication was another strength of Laurel's. She maintained open and transparent lines of communication, sharing updates, milestones, and any concerns promptly throughout the day. This transparent approach helped us stay connected and involved in our baby's daily experiences, even when we were both working. Laurel really helped us navigate this exciting and stressful time with our newborn, and she took amazing care of our little one :)
