Adventure Nannies: Tales of Wonder, Wildness, and Wisdom
"If you think nannies are 'just' caregivers - think again. In Adventure Nannies, ten nannies offer an unfiltered peek into their lives as family assistants, problem-solvers, confidantes, crisis counselors and travel companions, all the while forging deep bonds with the children in their care. Their stories are a fascinating look at a profession that requires heart, flexibility and an unwavering commitment to shaping the next generation."
- Linda Åkeson McGurk, author of There's No Such Thing as Bad Weather and The Open-Air Life What does it truly mean to be an Adventure Nanny? Beyond the Mary Poppins stereotypes and celebrity gossip headlines lies a world of extraordinary individuals who are redefining what it means to nurture the next generation. In this captivating collection, ten remarkable nannies share their journeys-from traveling the globe with music's biggest stars to turning childhood play into profound learning experiences. These stories reveal them as they truly are: educators, adventurers, entrepreneurs, and invaluable partners to families worldwide. You'll meet Brandy, who transformed her wanderlust into a thriving enterprise; Meaghan, who's toured with rock stars across continents; Jess, whose path to self-discovery led to becoming a beloved caregiver; Sam, who navigated the wild worlds of festivals and communes; Sarah, who found her voice as The Modern Nanny after overcoming burnout; Kim, whose immigrant journey led to entrepreneurial success; Emma, who discovered she's more than "just a nanny"; James, who teaches that adventure is more mindset than destination; Reagan, who learned the power of "mom boss magic"; and Shenandoah, whose musical roots created harmony in the childcare industry. Through their eyes, witness the evolution of modern childcare-where professional boundaries meet deep connection, where grit meets grace, and where everyday moments become extraordinary memories. "Adventure Nannies: Tales of Wonder, Wildness, and Wisdom" pulls back the curtain on an often invisible workforce, revealing the heart, intelligence, and adaptability required to excel in what many mistakenly dismiss as "just babysitting" and the profound impact of those who choose to make childhood their life's work. This collection was compiled by Shenandoah Davis, CEO and owner of Adventure Nannies, one of the largest recruitment firms for nannies, private educators, and newborn care specialists in the United States. With her background in music and entrepreneurship, Shenandoah has transformed the childcare industry by bringing together exceptional nannies and families who value adventure, education, and meaningful connection.
