Hi! I'm Michele - a childcare professional with over 35 years of experience and 7. 5 years as an accredited preschool owner. I now focus on what I love most: being present with one family at a time. When you hire me, you're getting more than a babysitter. I am fully insured, hold Staff and Director Credentials, and am certified in Pediatric CPR and First Aid. You can feel confident your children are in the hands of a seasoned, credentialed professional. I'm patient, dependable, and nurturing with children of all ages. When I'm with your children, they have my complete attention - and my word that they are safe, happy, and in good hands. My goal: you walk out the door feeling completely at ease. I'm also very comfortable with pets - I have a 115-pound Bernese Mountain Dog of my own, so even the big ones don't faze me! I look forward to supporting your family with the same care and warmth I have given families for over three decades.
Holy cow.. Michele was the first caregiver to ever watch my daughter and she was with her for nearly 10 hours and she did NOT disappoint!!!! I was nervous but she had the education, the calm demeanor, playful energy and just overall was such a delight. My daughter is in her separation anxiety phase and immediately she was drawn to Michele. Not only did she send photo updates, she also managed to compile an entire list of nap times, diaper changes, feedings, amount that was fed. I mean wow, I was absolutely blown away with the care she gave. Additionally, she was early, which was a huge bonus. 100/10 would recommend her and cannot praise her enough.
