A little bit about me

Hey Lovely Parents,

My name is Astride and I have been working in the childcare industry for over 20 years. From the age of 12, families have entrusted me with the care of their precious children, and I feel honored.

I offer families a great deal of flexibility and I've traveled with my employers, done overnights, and I worked as a live-in. I am a pro when it comes to establishing sleep schedules, potty training, developing comprehension skills, and implementing effective disciplinary systems that concentrate on taking preventative measures and positive redirection-- translation: I can help with toddler tantrums. I've worked with children of all ages from newborns, to preteens.

I use creative methods in order to reach children. I'm known for using my obsession with musicals to orchestrate musical numbers using stuffed animals. I am a big believer of educational fun time-- and I like to keep kids busy with adventurous outings, art, music, dance, science experiments, baking projects and reading. If your kids don't like to read, I'll turn them...and that's a promise. I focus on nourishing independence by letting children practice things on their own in a safe environment, offering options, while setting boundaries. Due to my methods I've developed strong and lasting bonds with the kids I watch and their parents. I have worked with parents with demanding professions, and I make it my top priority to be a team player who works for the betterment of the children.

I am CPR certified, and I am up to date with the TDAP vaccination, and TB test. A few extra perks is that I can help with beginner to intermediate French, I love to cook healthy and tasty meals, and I'm always up for embarrassing myself for a good laugh.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Naomi, and I’m a caring, responsible, and creative person who genuinely loves being around children. I enjoy helping kids learn, grow, and express themselves while creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. I also have a big love for cooking and enjoy preparing meals and trying new recipes. Growing up, I was always involved in keeping my home clean and organized, so tidying up, doing household chores, and maintaining a clean space come naturally to me. My background in musical theatre has also helped me develop my creativity, patience, and communication skills, which I love bringing into activities with children. I’m excited to support families by making their lives a little easier while ensuring their little ones feel happy, safe, and loved!

Hi! My name is Yanni, and I’m a creative, caring, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys working with children. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and playful, and I love creating a fun environment where kids can feel comfortable being themselves while still having structure and boundaries.

As a fashion designer and creative, I’m especially great at keeping little ones engaged through arts, crafts, imaginative play, music, and hands-on activities. I’m also organized, communicative, and take the responsibility of caring for someone’s child very seriously. My goal is always for parents to feel confident that their children are safe, happy, and well cared for while they’re away.
