To Whom it May Concern, Our family hired Christine Petras to work as our nanny in July 2021 and we would certainly recommend her work. Christine has demonstrated tremendous responsibility in taking care of our 11-month-old daughter and in keeping the house in working order. She is kind, trustworthy and always on time. While caring for our daughter, Christine performed a handful of tasks: • Prepared and served baby-led weaning meals with balanced nutrition and ensured food safety, while be trained in emergency response (CPR) • Organized fun and educational games, read storybooks that increased our daughter’s interest in story time, and planned daily, outdoor activities (weather permitted) such as walking to the local playground and park • Performed light household chores pertaining to our daughter, such as: laundry, dishes, tidying of our daughters play areas • Maintained a daily routine that our daughter looked forward to Christine has always brought a professional, well-thought-out approach when caring for our child. She is capable of isolating important obstacles in our child’s life and investigated literature for the best possible means to address those obstacles, in such a manner, that our daughter has consistently met her developmental milestones. Christine has a heart of gold and continually goes above and beyond her job description, her work ethic is untouchable, and her patience is something our family will always be grateful for. Christine has been an absolute gift to our family – she is loving, energetic and present. She is able to work in the intimate family environment with integrity and professionalism. Our family treasures Christine and deeply value her contribution to our household. It’s hard to explain how much my family loves Christine and how sad we were that it was time for our daughter to start school. It really does take a village to raise a child, and Christine is the safest, most loving village out there.

Taylor Smith

Maternal–infant health professional with extensive experience supporting families across the prenatal, perinatal, and postpartum continuum of care. I bring a service-oriented, patient-centered approach grounded in evidence-based lactation care, interdisciplinary collaboration, and culturally responsive support. I am an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and Interdisciplinary Doula with hands-on experience in inpatient hospital settings, community-based programs, and private practice. My work has included high-acuity inpatient lactation support, home-based maternal–infant care coordination, peer counseling, and program development serving diverse and Medicaid-insured populations. Throughout my career, I have partnered closely with nurses, midwives, physicians, and community organizations to improve breastfeeding outcomes, strengthen continuity of care, and expand access to maternal health resources. I am highly skilled in client education, crisis-sensitive communication, documentation, data tracking, and managing complex caseloads while maintaining compassion and accuracy. In addition to direct care, I have experience in advocacy and systems-level work, including Medicaid reform initiatives, doula workforce development, volunteer training, and curriculum creation. I am comfortable operating in both clinical and non-clinical environments and bring strong organizational, technical, and communication skills to every role. I am currently pursuing my Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN, RN) while continuing to advance my work in maternal–infant health. I am passionate about improving care delivery, strengthening health equity, and supporting families during one of the most critical periods of their lives.
