Raising the Standard of Modern Caregiving
For more than 20 years, I’ve dedicated my career to one mission:
Helping children thrive by empowering the adults who care for them.
Throughout my career, I’ve served as a professional nanny, newborn care specialist, pediatric sleep consultant, educator, and family assistant. I’ve had the privilege of supporting families across the country, including high-profile households where excellence, discretion, professionalism, and exceptional care were expected every day.
As a Head Nanny and Family Assistant, I led teams of professional nannies while helping families create calm, well-run homes where children could thrive. Those experiences taught me that exceptional caregiving is about far more than meeting a child’s basic needs. It requires professionalism, emotional intelligence, a deep understanding of child development, thoughtful communication, and strong partnerships with parents.
For more than two decades, I’ve had a front-row seat to what helps children and families truly thrive. I’ve seen firsthand that exceptional caregiving isn’t about perfection. It’s about intention, connection, professionalism, and a commitment to lifelong learning.
By combining decades of hands-on experience with evidence-based education, my goal is to help parents and professional caregivers make confident, informed decisions that support children’s healthy development. That philosophy is the foundation of everything I teach through The Modern Help.
Why I Created The Modern Help
After two decades working directly with families, I recognized a gap. Parents were searching for compassionate, evidence-based guidance they could trust. Professional caregivers wanted education that went beyond generic certifications, empowering them with the confidence, expertise, and professionalism to elevate their careers and provide exceptional care.
The Modern Help was created to bridge that gap.
Today, The Modern Help provides evidence-based education for parents and professional caregivers, including nannies, newborn care specialists, doulas, and others committed to providing exceptional care. Every course, certification, and resource is grounded in research, shaped by real-world experience, and thoughtfully designed to help children thrive by empowering the adults who care for them.
What I Believe
- I believe exceptional caregiving begins with intentional, evidence based education.
- I believe children deserve adults who understand not only what to do, but why it matters.
- I believe parents deserve compassionate, practical support free from judgment.
- I believe professional caregivers deserve education that reflects the tremendous responsibility they carry and helps elevate the profession as a whole.
- Most of all, I believe that when we invest in the adults who care for children, we create a lasting impact on children, families, and the communities around them.
Professional Experience & Education
Professional experience has always been only one part of my journey.
I’m passionate about lifelong learning and have pursued advanced education in child development, sleep, parenting, family systems, emotional regulation, yoga, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation. My work is grounded in evidence-based practices while also drawing from decades of hands-on experience and a deep understanding of the relationships, emotions, and real-life dynamics that shape caregiving.
My experience and professional education include:

Trainings & Certifications

My professional development has also taken me around the world, where I’ve studied yoga, meditation, mindfulness, conscious pregnancy, and family well-being with internationally respected teachers throughout India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Indonesia. Those experiences deepened my understanding of presence, connection, and the profound impact that calm, responsive caregiving has on children’s development.
Today, I combine evidence-based education, global learning, and more than two decades of hands-on experience to help parents and professional caregivers make confident, informed decisions that support children’s healthy development.
Beyond My Work
The most meaningful role I’ve ever held is being a mom.
Motherhood has deepened my empathy for families, strengthened my understanding of child development, and reinforced my belief that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to raising children.
Every child is different.
Every family is different.
The best guidance honors both the science and the relationship.
That philosophy shapes every course, certification, and resource I create through The Modern Help.
