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.

Working with infants and toddlers is my passion. It is an honor and a privilege to know, love, and care for such young minds! I'm excited to get to know you and your kiddo!

Hi! I'm a CPR/First Aid certified mom of three (two grown), with years of experience as both a nanny and early childhood educator. I've lived in Hixson for 17yr. I nanny a wonderful baby girl, Tues-Thurs. My Mon/Fri contract has concluded & I am looking for a new family to fill Fri-Mon.I'm reliable, a non-smoker, have my own transportation, and can help with cooking, light housekeeping, and pet care.I specialize in newborns, toddlers, potty training, and kids with special needs-and especially love caring for little ones under 2, though I enjoy working with all ages.I believe one fully engaged caregiver is worth more than several distracted ones. Limited screen time (according to parent pref), just quality interaction. I plan fun, age-appropriate indoor/outdoor activities that support learning and development.I treat each child with the same care and intention I'd want for my own. Value connection, safety, and play? Please reach out.Looking forward to meeting you!
