A little bit about me

Creative, caring, and experienced, I love helping children grow, explore, and thrive. I’ve cared for my special needs brother and babysat kids from infants to teens, giving me the patience and adaptability to meet each child’s unique needs. I’m passionate about fostering creativity, emotional growth, and a healthy, grounded mindset through arts, imaginative play, and hands on learning. Growing up caring for my grandparents, I gained years of experience cooking, cleaning, and managing a home skills I bring into every childcare setting. While I currently work as a server, being a hands on nanny is where I feel most fulfilled, creating structured, joyful, and nurturing environments for children to flourish.

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love staying active with children, whether it’s going to parks, exploring nature, or enjoying outdoor adventures together. I also enjoy fostering creativity through arts and crafts, imaginative play, and hands on projects. At home, I like giving kids a sense of independence by involving them in fun tasks, like making snacks, helping with small chores, or engaging in interactive learning activities. My goal is always to combine fun, exploration, and learning in ways that let children feel curious, confident, and inspired.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters most to me as a nanny is building trust and giving families confidence that their children are in caring, capable hands. I strive to be like an extension of the parents’ own brain attentive, proactive, and thoughtful. Beyond caring for children, I take pride in cooking, cleaning, and maintaining a well-organized home, so that when parents come home, they know their child has been nurtured and their household is taken care of.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience working with children with a variety of special needs, including nonverbal children, children with autism who may have physical or behavioral challenges, children with Down syndrome, and children with physical disabilities. Through these experiences, I’ve learned patience, empathy, and effective strategies to provide individualized care, create a safe and supportive environment, and help each child thrive at their own pace.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was at the park while playing with one of the children I babysit. I helped them build confidence and respond positively to bullying, guiding them to understand their own emotions. By the end, they felt empowered and were able to play and interact happily with other kids, which was incredibly rewarding to witness.
