She's worked with many different situations such as NICU newborns, micropremies, bradies, triplets and colicky babies and many more. She's worked for high profile families and gets 90% of her jobs from word of mouth referrals. Betty got into this business because her son was born with a mild form of autism.

She began immediately taking classes and has enjoyed her chosen profession ever since!

I have been a childcare provider for ten years and am seeking a position with a family looking for a long-term commitment.

I am well-versed in the different phases of childhood development and have experience with children of all ages, including toddler twins. Families I've worked with tell me they love the way I care for their babies in gentle, nurturing manner, while at the same time engage their older children in arts & crafts, reading, bike rides, play dates - you name it! I think it is this versatility that would make me a great fit for a family who foresees needing my expertise for years to come as their family grows.

I have a lot of energy and channel it into ways that best meet the needs of the children I care for. For instance, I'm not a "TV-watching Nanny"! I believe in devoting 100% of my time to my duties as a caregiver. I do everything from light housekeeping to helping with pets. By the way, I am told that I am an excellent cook! My reliability and dependability is an asset to any family, and I have many references willing to attest to these traits.

I am also told that I have a warm personality - this enables me to develop rapport with children and parents easily and quickly. When I bond with a family, the bond tends to last, as I continue to baby-sit for many of the families I've worked for in the past on an as needed basis long after the job ends. I take my job as a caregiver very seriously and have a passion for childcare. I hope to share this with you and your family soon. To learn more about me, please contact the agency that represents me at (610) 645-6550.
