About Michelle

Experience: 10 yrs

With 20 years of experience caring for children of all ages, I'm passionate about creating a nurturing and engaging environment. My previous babysitting roles solidified my desire to positively impact young lives and support families. I am patient, creative, and approachable. I follow parents' preferred communication methods and am comfortable enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games. I am comfortable caring for more than one child at a time. I hold a college degree, and I am First Aid and CPR Trained. I also have experience with special needs children. I'm happy to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, grocery shopping, laundry, running errands, homework help, etc. I look forward to the opportunity to bring my energy and experience to your family and create lasting memories with your child.

Michelle has been a nanny/house manager, for my family for over 10 years. We are parting ways only because we are moving out of state. She has done everything for us. She cleans, does all the laundry, grocery shops, runs errands, takes care of our dogs, helps with homework and school projects, organizes our home, pick up/drop off for school, took our children to all activities, and she even stayed with our children while my husband and I went on many vacations. She is very patient and nurturing and my boys adore her. We are very sad that we will be losing a part of our family and any family would be extremely lucky to have her. Good luck!
