The most important part about being a nanny...

Two thoughts come to mind:
1. Is creating an environment that is safe and promotes exploration, learning, and self-acceptance. Kids deserve to grow in a world full of possibilities and imagination without judgement, I truly believe I create a space where it’s fun to play and use our imagination to go to other worlds, run restaurants, work construction sites, see what life their favorite animal is like, etc.

2. I am a placeholder for you while you’re apart from you little ones. I am here to provide the love and care they deserve all the time so you can go about your day out of the house knowing they are safe and cared for.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Setting up a treasure hunt for the kids to get outside and practice our reading and processing skills.

Getting to read My Father’s Dragon to them like my parents and nanny would read to me.
