A little bit about me

I am currently a preschool teacher and a camp counselor with a passion for helping children learn, grow, and thrive. I have been working with children since 2019 at the same summer camp, where I have gained valuable experience and grown into a confident, dependable caregiver. Throughout the years, I have built strong relationships with children and families while developing the patience, creativity, and leadership skills needed to support children of all ages.

My experience in a daycare setting has further strengthened the skills I developed at camp. Working in the classroom has expanded my knowledge of child development, positive behavior guidance, and creating engaging, nurturing environments.
I am excited to take the next step in my career as a nanny, where I can provide individualized care and build a meaningful relationship with a family. I look forward to creating a fun, safe, and enriching environment while supporting each child’s unique needs and development.

A little bit about me

I am expecting my first child in June! Currently I am a CNA doing private home care for a company based out of Boston. I am hoping to find a family that would allow me to take my baby with me to work as I am also a full time nursing student (well hope to continue full time in September). I used to nanny until I became a CNA ,I have been meeting some nannies lately in the Charlestown area that do nanny share and I thought I may go back into it. I have also studied prenatal, infant and toddler growth and development.
