A little bit about me

I have been working as a full- or part-time nanny for more than 12 years and am currently interested in speaking to families with infants or young toddlers - possibly interested in a contracted nanny share.

I have a strong philosophy based in RIE and responsive parenting, with some experience in Montessori and great interest in outdoors-based learning.

I am a yoga teacher and am currently studying somatics and birth/family transition support. I'd rather be around kids, but when I'm not I can usually be found walking or reading :)

Excellent references upon request.

A little bit about me

Greetings
I was a nanny in my early years for a professional couple in NYC
I started babysitting at a very young age on Cape Ann
Life brought me many places and gave me 3 children of my own to whom are now teenagers, I loved being a stay at home mother
and now I find myself with an empty nest as my children are residing in California during the school year with their Dad
I love caring for children, all ages have there uniqueness
Ideally I’m looking for a possible live in position Monday through Friday 9 to 6 pm
No weekends unless it’s an emergency or occasional date night
I would need at least 3 to 4 weeks off in the Summer as I will be traveling with mine
I love to read, being outside in all kinds of weather, art, music being silly, not the most sports driven person but swimming and baseball are a thing.
