Meet Laura

  • Experienced Doula
  • Comfortable with pets

Hello My name is Laura. I have been a Professional Nanny since 1994. My professional back round also includes Director of a Child Care Center, Preschool and Kindergarten Teacher, and operator of a licensed Family Daycare home. I love nanny work because I enjoy being made a special part of a family, now that my own children are grown. I hold a B.S. degree in Child Development and am a Certified Childbirth Assistant. I have CPR and First Aid Training. I have made my life's work serving children and families. Activities I enjoy with children are arts and crafts, puppet shows, story time (one of my favorites is The Snowy Day), food preparation, hide and go seek, hiking, puzzles and games.
