Erin worked with our family from June to August 2025, supporting us with our daughter from 6 to 15 weeks old.

Her role was to provide assistance in the home one day a week while I recovered from childbirth and cared for our exclusively breastfed baby. Erin’s duties were primarily shared care, and she did not have sole charge for longer than brief periods (around 30 minutes). She did not implement any sleep techniques or offer advice on sleep, feeding, or newborn care during her time with us.

There were also some lapses in judgment — for example, taking our 2-month-old baby out for a walk during a heatwave despite the high temperatures. On another occasion, Erin requested to take our baby to a social gathering with other nannies and babies — a group of people I had never met. As our baby was very young, exclusively breastfed, and had not yet travelled in the car with her, I did not feel this would benefit our baby and declined.

Erin then chose to end her placement without notice, communicating this via text message. While Erin was friendly, our experience did not align with what is currently described on her professional profile.

I had not intended to leave a review, but after seeing her profile’s description of her time with our family, I felt it was important to provide an accurate account of our experience. Families considering working with her may wish to clarify expectations, responsibilities, and preferred working style in advance.
