A little bit about me

Hi! I'm a passionate, energetic, and kind caregiver with a deep love for working with children and supporting families. As a mom of two , I understand firsthand the importance of patience, connection, and helping little ones reach meaningful milestones. I've had the joy of working with children from birth to age 7 and am also a trained postpartum doula, helping families transition and settle into their new roles with confidence and care.

I’m a certified yoga instructor, specializing in gentle, restorative, prenatal, and postpartum yoga. I bring a calm, nurturing presence to everything I do. I love the outdoors, learning new skills (currently giving gardening a try!), and spending quality time with my husband and kids. After taking time to be with my own little ones, (surviving two under two) I’m excited and ready to return to the workforce, doing what I love, supporting children’s growth, curiosity, and development every step of the way.

More About Me

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

As a trained postpartum doula, I specialize in newborn care and supporting families during the early weeks and months of parenthood. In addition to doula work, I’ve been a trusted babysitter and have hands-on experience working in a child development program with children aged 18 months to 7 years old. In that role, I led engaging classes focused on physical activity, helping children develop their motor skills, build self-confidence, and promote overall physical wellness through age-appropriate play and movement.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love engaging in fun and enriching activities with children, including reading stories together, building with blocks or magnetic tiles, riding bikes, fútbol, and exploring the park. I also enjoy having dance parties, blowing bubbles, and finding simple, joyful ways to spark their imagination and movement.

The most important part about being a nanny...

For me, the most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment where children can grow, explore, and be themselves. Building trust with both the child and their family is at the heart of everything I do. It’s about being a consistent, caring presence in their lives and helping them reach milestones with confidence, joy, and curiosity.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny is when a child begins to truly open up. They start to trust me and feel completely comfortable in my presence. It’s a beautiful shift that shows we've built a meaningful connection, and in that moment, it feels like I’ve gained the world.
