Covid Vaccinated -I am a Bright Nanny that is seeking a set fulltime or part time nanny position. I just finished a 4.5 year position and so I’m open to a temp position. 20 plus years of babysitting and 16 years of being a professional nanny. Warm and engaging, super safe and playful at the same time. I am known to be amazing with twins, nanny shares, infant and toddler care and mutliples/ siblings. I am very caring and compassionate with the children, but I also am exact about sleep schedules and food/ diet. Below is my favorite reference letter! Our highly qualified, experienced, and loving nanny is available! The children Christine currently looks after are starting school, so she is looking for a new family. Christine has watched our school-aged children for over a year for occasional date night, overnight and/or weekend sitting. She has also house-sat for Read more us for extended periods of time. In all cases, we have found her to be reliable and an asset to our family. Christine is always engaged with our children and willing to get down on their level to play with them in whatever their chosen activity; whether it be playing tennis, reading them stories, creating art, or simply playing with their toys. She also offers her own suggestions for adventures and entertainment to keep them busy and happy. My children are always so excited to hear that Christine is coming over. She has a BA in Psychology and has years of experience as a nanny (including shares and multiple children).

Christine was hired as a temp in the mornings for a week when our regular childcare person was away on vacation (and another temp we had decided on completely flaked on us!). Christine was delightful - she was able to win over our 18 month old in quick fashion, reading books, playing and goofing around, and taking her places. There was no iPad or TV involved - Christine entertained our little one without using any distractions other than her active, personal engagement. She quickly adapted to our child's schedule. As I worked from home while Christine was around, I was able to observe her interactions with our kiddo. She managed mealtimes and naps well, as well as fussiness due to teething pain. She was very attuned to our child's needs and shifted gears easily when needed. Christine is definitely a pro who saved us in a pinch! We still keep in touch and use her every once in a while. Our little girl loves her.
