A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Anaiis and I’m an American childcare professional with a strong background in Psychology and Education. I studied at FOS Friedberg in Augsburg, Germany, where I earned my Abitur with a focus on child psychology and pedagogy.

I’ve cared for children of various ages — from infants to school-aged — for multiple families in Germany and the U.S., and I truly love creating nurturing, structured, and joyful environments that support each child’s development. I’m bilingual in English and German, CPR certified, and hold a valid American driver’s license.

Families describe me as warm, patient, and dependable, and I take pride in helping children feel safe, confident, and curious about the world around them.

A little bit about me

Howdy! I'm Lo! 🤠 I've been working with kids for years and genuinely love creating fun, engaging, and safe environments where they can learn, play, and be themselves!!! I was a full-time live-in nanny for a little boy from ages 3–7, cared for twin infant boys from birth to 7 months, and have years of babysitting experience with children of all ages.

I'm very hands-on and love crafts, baking, library trips, outdoor adventures, games, and creative projects. I believe kids should be included in everyday life (not just entertained) so I love finding ways to turn grocery runs, cooking, errands, and daily routines into opportunities for learning and fun.

I'm endlessly curious and passionate about books, learning, and helping kids build confidence by exploring the world around them. My goal is always to bring warmth, joy, and a little whimsy into each child's day while giving parents peace of mind that their little ones are safe, loved, and well cared for!
