About Tracy

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi my name is Tracy and I have more than 28 years of working in the child care field. My professional history includes working as a nanny, head teacher at 2 daycares and lifeguard and swim instructor. My responsibilities over the years include identifying the needs of various children and guiding them to learn and develop to his or her full potential. I specialize in infant and toddler care. For 10 years of my career I had the privilege of working with special needs children (i. e. autism spectrum disorder, dwarfism, epilepsy, ADHD and anxiety disorders). I have both observed and participated in OT, RDI and cranial sacral. This has led me to become a keen observer and further develop into a more patient and compassionate childcare provider and learn skills that are not traditional. I believe these skills and abilities, combined with my professional knowledge, has led me to a fulfilling nanny career with amazing families that I still keep in contact with today.

We have been incredibly fortunate to have Tracy as part of our family for nearly four years. She started caring for our children when our son was just 4 months old and our daughter was 2, and throughout that time she has been nothing short of exceptional. Tracy is reliable, punctual, nurturing, and genuinely invested in our kids. She has a special ability to get down on a child's level, engage their imagination, and make everyday moments fun and meaningful. Whether she was creating art projects, coloring, playing imaginative games, or helping with school pickups and drop-offs, she always brought a happy, thoughtful presence. She pays close attention to our kids unique interests and finds creative ways to encourage and celebrate them. Her communication is excellent. She is direct, thoughtful, and always keeps us informed with clear, detailed updates. Her organization is unmatched! Our kids' laundry and linens have never looked better. Most importantly, our kids absolutely adore her. Our family is transitioning because both children will be in school full-time, otherwise we would gladly keep Tracy longer. Any family would be lucky to have her, and I recommend her without hesitation.
