About Briar

Experience: 10 yrs

As the oldest child raised by a single mother, childcare has been a core part of my life from an early age. Helping raise my sisters from infancy through their teen years prepared me with real-world experience in nurturing, patience, and family support. Since then, I have worked with children of all ages in both part-time and full-time roles, including a full-time position caring for a4-year-old and later two brothers, ages two and four. My responsibilities have included daily routines, creative play, diapering, nap schedules, and after-school care for an older child. For the past four years, I have also worked as an animal rescue coordinator, growing my communication, organization, and crisis-management skills. While I will continue to volunteer in rescue, I am excited to return to nannying and provide attentive, positive care to a family who values reliability, compassion, and a supportive environment.

Why do I rate Briar as a five star? Let me explain how much this loving, giving, person helped me while raising three daughters, alone. Briar is a naturally maternal warm patient woman. She understands exactly what it takes to teach and care for young children. She is creative, funny and loves animals. This is a clear indication that she loves vulnerable creatures, and puts every ounce of care in ensuring they are well cared for, fed, clean, have fun and are happy. My two youngest daughters love her with all of their hearts. When they were little all they wanted was to be with her, near her and in her space. Briar took millions of pictures that I cherish and videos of her time watching these children grow. Briar wrapped all the presents one year for me because I was overwhelmed at Christmas time. She brought them over wrapped perfectly. It was like a Martha Stewart rendition of Perfect Home. Briar babysit with care. Briar cooked them delicious food. She did arts and crafts, sang songs, went on hikes, swam with them, took them to Chuckie Cheese, Toys R Us when it was still open, the beach and so on. Children love briar Because her aura is gorgeous, bright, golden and she exudes empathy like no other. Yes, Briar is my daughter, my oldest child, but more importantly…my hero. Raising my younger daughters would have been nearly impossible without my sweet helpful Briar. She will make your children happy, which as parents, is all we want in life. Briar is a wonderful caretaker of children and I recommend her wholeheartedly.
