What kind of care is right for you?

Commercial Daycare

A childcare center run as a business, usually in its own building. Staff care for groups of kids by age, with set hours and structured activities.

Home Daycare

Childcare provided in someone’s home. A smaller, more personal setting where one or two caregivers watch a mixed-age group of kids.

Au Pair Care

When a relative—like a grandparent or aunt—looks after your child instead of a formal daycare or paid nanny. Often more flexible and familiar.

Professional Nanny

A trained, experienced caregiver who works in your home, often full-time. They usually have formal childcare skills and treat the work as a career.

Nanny Share

Two families split the cost of one nanny, with the kids cared for together—usually at one home or alternating between both.

Recent success stories.

On our initial call, when I said "I should probably chill out and learn to let go a little," and she said, "You know, I don't think you do. This is a person who will take care of the most precious thing in your life, and it's good to be very careful."

I can't tell you how many times I've played that over in my head throughout this process and how calming it really was.

Laura was incredibly insightful during a pivotal and challenging childcare situation for our family of 3 going on 4 children.


Her decades of experience have payed dividends for our family and we are so happy to have had her in our corner as we navigated the complexities of hiring childcare help for our family.
