About Michelle

Experience: 20 yrs

I am an experienced postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, nanny and early childhood educator. I have dedicated my career to working with families and children in a variety of settings. My background includes working in the private homes of families as well as teaching and leadership roles in quality early childhood programs. My experience covers all ages. I have extensive experience and knowledge in the care of infants, some include sleep shaping, breastfeeding, creating a schedule, starting solids, baby led-weaning, ages/stages of development, developmental milestones, individualized lesson planning based on educational goals, developmentally appropriate activities and special needs (developmental delays, gastro-intestinal illnesses, genetic disorders, food allergies, critical health conditions). My experience includes working in fully staffed homes, rotational positions, live-in and fly in and out. I have extensive experience working as an administrator, leader and part of a tea

Michelle is incredible with children - she is patient, kind, high energy and creative. Her experience extends well beyond most nanny job descriptions and she truly goes above and beyond for the families she works for. If you are looking for someone to love and care for your kids the way you do, you won't find anyone better than Michelle.
