A little bit about me

I have a background steeped in fostering connections with people and past experience in childcare. As a camp counselor for two years at a sleepaway camp for ages 9-16 and a summer nanny for a household with three children under 6, I've honed my skills in guiding and caring for young minds while fitting a child's individual needs. Growing up with a special needs brother has ingrained patience and empathy in me, which are crucial qualities in childcare. I am comfortable with diverse household needs, and enjoy creating nutritious meals and maintaining an organized environment for children to explore themselves and the world around them.
