I'm a nanny/babysitter with 6 years of experience in child care of all ages. I love to do anything from watching TV on the couch, reading and playing at the house, and going out to enjoy nice weather! I'm a very hands-on nanny/sitter who wants to get to know the personalities and interests of the kids I'm watching. Not only do I enjoy spending time with kiddos, I also am happy to help out with things around the house. From food prep to dishes to laundry, I can have it covered! I just moved back to Birmingham after being in NYC for college & have open availability.

Hi! My name is Rachel B. I have recently moved to Orlando and am excited to join the Wyndy community. I graduated in 2022 from Bard College with a BA in Psychology. Since then, I have worked as a lead teacher in both an infant and toddler room at The Acorn School at Vanderbilt in Nashville, TN.
