A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Olivia! I’m 23 and have been working with kids a lot of my life. I’m currently a part time nanny for a family I’ve been with almost 2 years now. I’ve worked in preschools and with children that have special needs. I’m happy to help foster whatever environment your child is needing at this point in their life, help with homework, hobbies, etc. for little ones, work on foundational skills.

A little bit about me

Hi! I am a kind, patient, reliable, and loving nanny who adores kids and is passionate about providing needed support to families! I've worked with kids for the past 3-4 years and have recently gained experience working with kids with autism spectrum disorder. I have worked in a childcare center where I assisted classroom teachers with children ranging in ages from 3 months to 6 years old. I have also worked for the YMCA (summer program and after school program) where I worked with kids ranging in age from 5 years to 13 years old. I love arts and crafts, dancing and singing, being outdoors in nature, and just having a good time while also providing structure when needed. I love working with kids and it truly brings me joy guiding them through this world and being able to help them (and also their parents) as they grow!
