Welcome to Your Business Nanny™ Network
Knowledge. Growth. Success.
We know all about the highs and lows of owning and running a business. From glowing reviews and dream bookings to all-nighters and self-doubt, entrepreneurship is a journey that requires grit, resilience, and purpose. For many, it’s also a lonely path to walk — but it doesn’t need to be that way.
Your Business Nanny™ Network is a hub for small business owners and solopreneurs to find their community, gain knowledge, and connect with trusted service providers ready to help you elevate your business.
Message from the Founder
GREETINGS!
I’m Shakila Booker, CWEP, Owner & Managing Director of SML Assisting LLC — or as my clients love to call me, Your Business Nanny™. I started my business 15 years ago after seeing a major need for executive support and virtual assistant services in the special events and hospitality industry. Over a decade-plus of solopreneurship, I’ve learned the power of community and have cultivated a broad network of small business owners and service providers across specialties and industries.
Your Business Nanny™ Network is the entrepreneurial hub I always dreamed about, and I’m thrilled to be able to offer it to you today.
Your Business Nanny™ Network Values

Whether you’re looking for hiring help, marketing advice, or simply to share your latest win, you’re in the right place. We can’t wait to cheer you on and help you take your business to the next level!
QUALITY
We would never make a recommendation without doing our homework first. Our database of service providers is made up of vetted professionals who have proven to deliver top-notch results. We understand what small businesses need, so we did the research for you and curated only the providers we trust wholeheartedly.
INCLUSIVE
Your Business Nanny™ Network is for everyone. Whether you’re new or experienced, earning six figures or looking for your first client, going solo or building a team — you belong here. We don’t stand for any type of discrimination, and neither do our members. As long as you bring an open mind and heart, there’s a place waiting for you in our community.
GOAL-ORIENTED
Growing a business is hard work — we get it. But we also know that you, and every one of our members, pursued entrepreneurship for a reason. From spending more time with family to achieving financial freedom, there are many “whys” to choosing this path. When facing challenges, we maintain a positive attitude and learn from our mistakes so we can grow as individuals and business owners.
