Meet Kimmy

  • Comfortable with pets

I’m Kimmy, your not-so- average bookworm and podcast aficionado with a zest for life and a heart as big as my imagination. Born into a bustling household with an older sister and two step-sisters, my life has always been a delightful blend of chaos and love. My furry sidekick, Banjo, adds to the fun, ensuring there's never a dull moment. Whether I'm hitting the gym, soaking up some vitamin D, or curled up with a good book, I' m happiest when I'm learning something new or spending quality time with my loved ones. Describing myself as a homebody might seem quaint, but it' s in these simple joys that I find my greatest happiness. My journey into the world of nannying began around 4 years ago, when I discovered my passion for nurturing young minds at Lifetime Fitness's daycare center. From infants to preteens, I reveled in the joy of Read more watching each child grow and thrive under my care. The decision to become a nanny felt like a calling, especially after embracing the role full-time last summer—a season both challenging and immensely rewarding. There's something magical about witnessing the milestones of speech and learning, and tutoring in between has only deepened my appreciation for this vocation. Describing myself in three words? Outgoing, energetic, and empathetic. These traits are the pillars of my approach to nannying, allowing me to connect with children on a level that's both engaging and reassuring. My strength lies in my patience and my ability to communicate, ensuring that every child feels heard, understood, and valued. I'm well-versed in the art of keeping toddlers safe and school-aged children entertained without the crutch of screen time. Whether we're crafting masterpieces or exploring the great outdoors, my goal is to foster an environment where creativity and curiosity flourish. But what truly sets me apart? It's my unwavering commitment to the well-being and development of the children in my care. This understanding shapes every interaction, every lesson, and every game, ensuring that each child feels supported in their unique journey. In choosing me as your nanny/babsitter, you're not just getting a caregiver. You're inviting into your home a lifelong learner, a guardian of giggles, and a promoter of positive growth. I bring to the table not just my skills and experience, but a genuine love for what I do and a dedication to making a difference in the lives of your children.
