A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Mariana! While I may be on the younger side, my experience in childcare is extensive and might surprise you. I’ve been caring for kids in various capacities for years, from babysitting my siblings to leading activities as a camp counselor. I'm an active, energetic person who’s always on my toes, ready to keep up with the energy of kids. I truly enjoy being engaged and making sure children have a fun, safe, and enriching time with me.

A little bit about me

Greetings! My name is Chartamia, but I go by Shay. Prior to relocating, I was a full-time nanny for two amazing twins for three years that are now 7yrs old. I also worked as a part-time nanny twice a week for an awesome little guy until he went to kindergarten. As both a full time and part-time nanny, duties included meal prep/light cooking/light housework/potty training/arts and crafts/reading and fun field trips to the park, zoo, library, beach, and museums. My experience extends beyond nannying, I've worked as a nursery teacher caring for ages infant-5yrs old and multiple summers as camp counselor. I'm truly invested in the growth of small minds. I center my care and activities to cater to the child's developmental needs. I believe learning can be taught in many areas, rather it's in the classroom, studio, and or individual time. My goal is to help young minds reach their greatest potential in a nurturing and stimulating environment.
