A little bit about me

I have been teaching children ages 1-3 for the past two years. I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old. I like to be outside as much as possible and I love cooking/ baking (especially with kids). I went to Bryn Mawr college and majored in geology and anthropology. I have a fun time teaching kids about rocks and the earth. As hobbies I love making pottery, roller blading, and trying new art projects out.

A little bit about me

I've lived in Maine for the past seven years, including four years at UNE, where I earned my degree in Marine Affairs. Through my studies, I developed a passion for education and connecting people—especially children—with the natural world. I have a year of experience as a Pre-K teacher in a nature-based classroom, where I had the joy of watching children's creativity, confidence, and curiosity grow alongside the trees in our forest classroom. I love creating engaging, supportive environments where children can explore, learn, and thrive. I love getting to know each child's unique personality, and nannying offers the chance to create a deeper connection while supporting their learning, adventures, and day-to-day growth.

A little bit about me

I am 23 and about to hit two years living in Maine. I like meeting new people, listening to music, being outside, and hanging with friends. I’ve been learning a lot about my self but have been missing being involved with kids. From babysitting and swim lessons I’ve learned I love spending time with kids. I currently am working full time but if I find something right I’m willing to switch to nannying full time. :)
