A little bit about me

I am a Marine Corps veteran who left the military in 2020. After my service ended, I was hired as an AuPair in Milan, Italy. Sadly a month before my job, COVID changed these plans. I spent the following year and a half living in Colorado as a ski instructor and horseback trail guide. Since then, I moved to Dallas and pursued my passion of flying, and earned all of my qualifications. In late 2022, I began flying a private jet for a business executive. Shortly after he sold his jet, I began to pursue my other passions, taking a break from flying. My largest focus has been on horseback riding. Having worked on horse ranches for equine therapy for special needs kids, I dove deeper into the equestrian world. I currently own horses and train regularly for a type of show riding. While I am still waiting on returning to my pilot career, I wanted to pursue a job that would leave me happy. Knowing I have worked with kids before, I thought it would be a great place to return to.

More About Me

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

Assistant trainer at an equine therapy horse ranch (Praying Hands Ranch) for special needs kids in Parker, Colorado. I also regularly care for my late-brother's 5 year old daughter, Sloane.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I am very avid in anything outdoors! I have lead horseback rides/lessons for kids groups, hiking trips, or even just everyday activities outside. I believe there is great value in spending time outdoors without distractions from electronic devices.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One on one human interaction and making the child/young adult feel like a priority.

My experience with special needs children...

Praying Hands Ranch, equine therapy in Parker, Colorado.

The most important part about being a nanny...

When I was taking care of my late-brother's daughter, I got her to go muttin-bustin at the cowboy church in Ellis country for the first time. She was scared but had the time of her life!
