A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Zoe, and caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I started babysitting at 16 and have since turned that passion into almost 3 years of professional experience as an au pair—one year in the Netherlands and nearly two years here in the U.S.
What I love most about working with kids is being part of their growth and discovery—whether that’s helping with their daily routines, encouraging their creativity, or finding new playgrounds and activities that spark joy.
I’m experienced with children of all ages and comfortable with everything from diaper changes, bath time, meal prep, and bedtime routines, to homework help and fun activities. I also understand the importance of clear communication with parents to ensure consistency and trust.
Families I’ve worked with describe me as reliable, caring, and fun, with a good balance of structure and play.
