Hi, I'm Chelsea. Thank you for reading my profile! As a conscientious young woman with a Psychology degree and 18 years of consistent experience with children from newborn through young adulthood, I would love to make an impact on your family's development and happiness! My thousands of hours working in schools, nurseries, summer camps, and family homes have honed me into an attentive, creative care giver with a knack for balancing playfulness and responsibility. I am naturally very patient and I take a gentle compassionate approach in moments of disarray. I enjoy learning how the household approach different situations so I can provide congruency for children when parents are away. I am comfortable and experienced with newborns, twins, children with specialized needs, and am a fast adaptable learner. I am recently TrustLine verified, certified in CPR and First Aid, and have a perfect driving record. My top priorities are parents' peace of mind and kiddos having an amazing time!

Chelsea is an amazing nanny - one I would highly recommend (and have been) to everyone. She's been working part time (~25 hrs) for my family for 6 months now and we couldn't be happier with her. First of all, she truly cares for our little girl and it shows: this is not a job for her, but a passion. Our little girl is always thrilled when Chelsea walks in. Chelsea is very attentive to the direction we gave her for our little one's routine. She follows it perfectly. One of Chelsea's great qualities is her honesty and open communication style. If some thing unplanned occurred, she is upfront and honest about the event. She's always on time, but in the rare event she's running late she is very communicative about her whereabouts. What I also appreciate about Chelsea is her pro-activeness: she seeks to understand the reason behinds my parenting decisions so that if a situation occurs that we did not go over together, she will try and mimic what the parents would do in that situation. I'm happy she is confidant in her child rearing skills that minor situations don't require constant checking in with mom or dad. But, as mentioned, she will let me know what steps she took and will ask in the future if that is how it should be handled with your child. Chelsea is also very creative and playful with our child: she's been doing some art work with our 1 year old. We've enjoyed our little one's finger art. She's also athletic and willing to do any sports activities with your child. We love that Chelsea has the energy and enthusiasm needed to play all the activities with our little one. She always speaks softly with our child even when our child is crying/screaming, she is very patient and very loving (she will sing songs as the child is upset). She is reliable, responsible, and caring individual. Any family would be blessed to have her watch their child. I'd be happy to speak to anyone who would have additional questions about Chelsea's work as a nanny.
