Hello Mom and Dad, My name is Lystra, I am a nurturing, patient and caring nanny with 20+ years of experience caring for children of all ages. For me childcare has never been just a job but a calling,, For over two decades, I've help parents create safe haven of love and support to their little one's in a very child friendly manner, I also give parents the assurance of trust and security when leaving their kids in my care" Throughout my career families . describe me as highly reliable, warm and exceptional, I pride myself on open communication, strong routines, with my calm presence, strong instincts, and ability to understand the unique needs of each child. I'm hands-on, engaging, and genuinely joyful in my approach, whether that means reading stories, guiding early learning activities, supporting milestones, planning playtime, or simply offering comfort and consistency.
Truly a gem in the babysitter world. If you're looking for someone who will not only actively play with your child(ren) but also ensure the games are developmentally appropriate and skill-based, look no further. She fostered independence and skill growth through regular activities like eating and playing. Baby loved her play dates with Lystra and always looked forward to their time together. I knew she would be a great match when baby smiled at her during the first meet and greet. Jump on it if you're considering a babysitter!
