About Lynda

Experience: 10 yrs

I have over 45 years experience in the private home and the Early Childhood Classroom. I enjoy reading, with the children and in my free time. I enjoy doing arts and crafts. I enjoy getting down on the children's level, find out what they like, and do everything possible to help them grow. I don't mind getting dirty. I have experience with twins. I also have experience with several disabilities.

Lynda has worked with our two children from newborn through 3 years old, and we cannot imagine that we could find a better, more caring nanny. Prior to us having her join our family, I remember reading a previous review that said they believed their children thrived under Lynda’s care - and this really is a great way to sum up our family’s time with her. She not only took great care of our children from the perspective of what they needed on a day-to-day basis, but she also provided imagination, fun, instruction, and understanding. Lynda has a lot of experience working in early childhood development, and this is incredibly obvious when she’s interacting with your kids. It’s honestly a joy to watch, even after seeing it for years. From age-appropriate books and toys to sign language, she brings the whole package. Beyond being incredibly experienced with children, she is also extraordinarily punctual and dependable, which are attributes that we learned are not necessarily easy to find in a nanny (but so important for working parents!). I can’t think of a single day that she called out because she was sick, and she was not late a single time in the years we have known her; it really is impressive. We had worked with a few different people before we met Lynda, and we are very thankful that we were able to find someone we could truly trust with our children without hesitation. If she happens to actually be available when your family needs a loving caretaker for your child/children, then you can consider yourself lucky! Our family will miss her greatly, and wish her nothing but the best with her future families.
