Hi families! With nearly 20 years of experience in childcare, I'm someone who genuinely loves being around children-their curiosity, their energy, and the little moments that make each day. I'm patient, calm, and attentive, and I tend to connect easily with kids of all ages, especially infants and young children. Outside of childcare, I enjoy staying active, getting outside, and creating. I'm the kind of person who notices the little things, and loves to make things by hand I also truly value building strong relationships with the families I work with. I respect that every household is different, and I aim to support your routines, parenting style, and goals for your child as closely as possible. At the end of the day, I really enjoy what I do-being a steady, caring presence, creating and helping children feel safe, happy, and loved.
Carolanne is an exceptional nanny. She started working with our family in 2023 (kids 1 and 3 years old). In my opinion, her most unique quality is the immense respect she shows children, no matter what age. She has enviable patience and her genuine kindness makes her a perfect human to be caring for a children. Carolanne is very creative, loves coming up with art projects (and has even crocheted store-quality stuffies for the kids), and has a strong capacity as a household manager. She is very reliable, and willing to go above and beyond. Though she stopped working for us as nanny when my kids transitioned into preschool, we continue to have her care for the kids whenever possible.
