About Robin
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi! I'm Robin. I have over 10 years of experience working with children in creative settings, as well as a background in nature education, arts and crafts, music, dance and yoga. My mission in nannying is to elevate the whole family through providing outstanding childcare. I am a steadying guide for children as they engage with and navigate their world and relationships. I am present with children though their discoveries, disappointments, and triumphs. My style is mindful, playful and unruffled. With me as your nanny, your child(ren) will be exploring nature, enjoying stories, arts & crafts, and discovering their own creativity. I also offer grocery shopping and meal prepping. I am excited to learn more about your family!

We were drawn to Robin for her calm and professional demeanor, range of experience, stellar references-and enthusiasm for providing care and outdoor adventures for our then-one-year-old toddler. We were delighted to find that she is also organized, responsible, a clear communicator, empathetic, quick to solve problems, flexible, fun and quick to laugh. Her knowledge of early childhood education is a winning combo in our eyes as well. When we added a newborn to our family, we were excited to continue our relationship with Robin. True to her nature, she worked hard to understand and provide for the infant's unique needs-and showed us incredible support as parents, too. She has particularly helped our now-two-year-old toddler adjust to two huge changes: moving into a new home (in a new state) and finding his footing as a big brother. Her thoughtfulness, patience, creativity and steadiness have had a wonderful impact on his emotional health.
