Shannon Douglas
About me
I was born to nurture babies. I have 25 years of professional Nanny experience. The saying “do what you love and love what you do”? This statement is 100% why I am a Nanny. Being a Nanny fulfills me in a way nothing else ever has or ever will. I could not be more proud of my career as a Nanny and the positive impact I have had on dozens of families and children I hold in my heart forever. I participate in continuing education as well as numerous professional organizations in order to be the best Nanny possible. I am passionate about protecting and watching babies thrive while supporting parents. Others describe me as enthusiastic, creative and positive. I am a naturally optimistic person, and being with babies makes me feel joyful and hopeful. I was born in the South. My Dad is a retired FBI agent, so I am extremely attuned to safety and security. I have impeccable references as well as over a dozen five-star, recent reviews. I have a perfect background and clean driving record. I have never smoked or vaped and drive a safe vehicle. My hourly rate reflects my many years of quality care. Michael Phelps was born to swim; Mikhail Baryshnikov was born to dance, and Luciano Pavarotti was born to sing. I was born to be a Nanny.

Shannon was a blessing to our family during the newborn period. She was caring, attentive, experienced, and incredibly professional, and we always felt completely comfortable knowing our son was safe and well cared for in her hands. Her experience and helpful advice were invaluable, and her genuine love for what she does truly stood out. She made those early newborn days so much more manageable, and we are incredibly grateful for her support. Any family would be lucky to have Shannon!

To Whom It May Concern, I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Shannon, who worked with our family as a night nanny for our four month old son. During her time with us, Shannon was responsible for staying up overnight to monitor our baby, feeding him during the night, changing his diapers, and carefully logging his behavior and feedings for us to review each morning. Her detailed notes were incredibly helpful and gave us peace of mind, allowing us to stay informed and consistent with his routine. Shannon is caring, sweet, and exceptionally attentive. She handled our son with great patience and gentleness, and it was clear that she truly cared about his well-being. Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands allowed us to rest much more easily. We would recommend Shannon to any family looking for a trustworthy and dedicated nanny. Sincerely, Kristina

Shannon has been a full time nanny for our family the last two years starting when our son was 3 months old into toddler-hood. She is the biggest blessing to us! She loves our son like her own and is always looking out for our son’s safety every moment. She is everything and so much more we could hope and dream for as a caretaker for our son. She also is incredibly creative and pours that into every activity and craft she plans for our son. Her years of experience being a full-time nanny always impresses us and my husband and I have greatly benefited from all her wisdom! If you are looking for someone to watch your most precious little one, Shannon is the best you could ever meet!

Ms. Shannon has been a godsend for our family. She is so wonderful with children and making them feel comfortable. She does crafts and activities with them and they are never bored! I always feel great knowing my babies are safe with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a nanny. We love her!

Shannon goes above and beyond when caring for children. Our kids are 2 and 4. She ALWAYS had fun and educational activities planned for them, and lots of outside play, too. She was wonderful with implementing the children's use of good manners, which I think is important. Our kids love her. They enjoyed her coming to our house, and also going to her house. It is obvious that Shannon loves her job, and we love her. We highly recommend!

Shannon is exceptional. She has been providing impeccable childcare for my son since he was a newborn. She was the very first person I trusted to care for him shortly after his birth. Shannon was always attentive to my infant's needs. Later she was fantastic at keeping my son interested in reading, crafts, games, and creative play that had nothing to do with electronics. No easy task! Shannon has tremendous patience and loves to make the time fun; but she is no pushover and is able to maintain whatever ground rules you set. I could always focus on my work or enjoy my time away knowing my son was in Shannon's care.

Shannon was fantastic with my two girls. She engaged them in fun activities and adventures each day. They loved all their time with her. She was always on time, prepared, and went beyond the call of duty. Her communication with me was always very good and I was kept informed as well as included with pics throughout the day. She would be an asset to any family.

Shannon was our outstanding Nanny when we lived in Georgia. At the time, we had two daughters: ages 5 years old and two. Shannon was employed by us up until the time we moved out of state due to a career relocation. We would have been thrilled if we could have moved her with us. Shannon is extremely trustworthy and safety conscious. As a Nanny, Shannon is quite involved with the children. She makes sure they are stimulated with activities and new experiences. My daughters enjoyed doing artwork with her, going on nature hikes and spending lots of time at the pool. Shannon was always vigilant and made water safety her top priority. Shannon has maintained a relationship with our daughters even after we moved, and they are still close now.
