A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Caroline! I'm a longtime resident of Lexington, and I've recently moved to Harrisonburg as a counseling grad student at EMU.

I've always loved spending time with children- I come from a tight-knit community, so growing up, I spent lots of time looking after my younger cousins and the children of family friends. In addition, I have worked with elementary schoolers as a reading and writing tutor.

In my free time, I love reading, writing, playing video games, and spending time in nature.

I'm looking forward to getting to know your family!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

My undergraduate degree, focused on sociology and education, gave me experience in child development theories and included school visits at all age levels.

In addition, for the past year, I have worked as a tutor teaching reading and writing to elementary schoolers.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

- listening to music, singing, and dancing
- reading books together
- drawing and craft projects
- going for walks in parks and playgrounds
- playing with toys
- playing video games (some of my favorite kid-friendly ones are Mario Kart, Zelda, Animal Crossing, and LEGO video games!)
- card games and board games

The most important part about being a nanny...

Children are amazingly interesting people who bring new perspectives to the world that adults often miss! As a caretaker, I strive to build meaningful relationships with your children, supporting and caring for them while still allowing them to teach me and help me see the world in new ways. Let's grow together!
