A little bit about me

🌟 Intuitive Nanny Available in Delaware/ Otsego County areas 🌟

Hello! My name is Tori, and I’m currently looking to connect with a heart-centered family who’s in need of Full-time childcare support. I bring years of experience caring for children of all ages, with a gentle, intuitive approach rooted in emotional awareness and presence.

I create calm, nurturing spaces where children feel safe, seen, and supported in their unique light. I also love incorporating grounding activities like nature walks, creative play, storytelling, and music. I often use elements of mindfulness and energy regulation in my work — especially helpful for sensitive, imaginative, or energetically aware little ones.


If this resonates, feel free to reach out! Sometimes the right connection finds you through a intuitive nudge ✨

Warmly,
Tori

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a 20 years old and I live in Oneonta, NY.
I’m currently a part-time home health aide for my father and I would like to pickup some more hours on the days that I don’t take care of him.
My hours are flexible and I’m willing to work 30+ hours a week.
I’m completely willing to meal prep, cook, clean, do laundry etc while watching your children. I approach childcare with more of a gentle-parenting style. I’m very understanding and compassionate. My #1 goal in life is to have a family of my own one day, and I’m also very passionate about having a homestead/farm!
