We at Nannies Plus, feel it is important to know something about each of the key members of our experienced staff.
Lynn Socci, Director
Lynn, along with her sister Debbie Sugrue, brings a lifetime of experiences and a new dimension to Nannies Plus. Lynn combines
her professional training as an occupational therapist with knowing the rigors of raising three young children…all under the age of
ten. As an occupational therapist, Lynn spent ten years working in schools and group homes with children who had a wide array of
special needs and disabilities. During these early years, Lynn grew to appreciate the growing need for specialized childcare providers
and recognized the importance of trained personnel to help raise children with special needs. Her professional and personal lives
became intertwined when her daughter was diagnosed as developmentally delayed.
Nannies Plus has long been recognized as an innovative leader in the nanny industry. Lynn continues that forward-thinking
tradition by including a "special needs" component to the vast services Nannies Plus already offers. She has initiated a
nationwide campaign to target colleges and universities that have Special Education departments to recruit nanny candidates with
specialized degrees. Her goal is to make Nannies Plus #1 when it comes to caring for physically and mentally challenged children
in addition to maintaining it as one of the nation's premier nanny placement agency.
It is easy to understand how Lynn's enthusiasm and fresh ideas will continue to keep Nannies Plus at the forefront of the
childcare industry.
Debbie Sugrue, Director
Along with her sister Lynn, Debbie brings a wealth of experience and energy to Nannies Plus. Debbie's background is in business.
She and her husband started and ran a successful restaurant for five years. As their reputation and fame grew, they outgrew their first
location and purchased larger quarters. Just when everything was going right, Debbie's husband suffered a heart attack at the age of 37
and passed away. Grief-stricken, she needed to keep life in perspective in order to care for her two small children. In time, she
remarried, inherited two stepchildren, and realized that she missed the challenges of owning and running a business.
For six years, Debbie put her managerial skills to work helping produce and facilitate focus groups, research surveys, and market
reports for a marketing research firm. Next, she gained invaluable experience working for a medical planning company. Among her many
responsibilities, Debbie was responsible for managing projects and handling client relations. She then worked in sales and client
relations for a company that produced trade show presentations. Most recently, she assisted in the running of a non-profit education
program.
Debbie and Lynn started a small restaurant service business, but knew from the beginning that their long-term goal was to enter the
childcare industry. After all, having seven children between them - one with special needs - gave them great insights into what working
and at-home parents needed. Owning and running Nannies Plus was the perfect match for them.
Debbie is responsible for the day-to-day operations of Nannies Plus. She knows how important it is for parents to feel secure
that their children are cared for by a dedicated, loving nanny. With her many years of business experience, she will work hard to keep
Nannies Plus at the forefront of the childcare industry. Learn more about Nannies Plus in books, magazines, and newspapers.
