A little bit about me

Hi,
I just graduated with a degree in Psychology, and I am currently getting my master's in Nursing. I spend some of my time volunteering at my local children's hospital. I am the eldest in my family and have been around children my whole life. I enjoy arts and crafts and look for ways to have fun with the children that I interact with. I have been told that I am kind and patient. I am a very flexible and dependable person and enjoy making people smile.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part as a nanny is creating a safe, supportive environment where children are able to truly be children. Allowing them to explore, play, express emotions, and grow at their own pace. Patience is important when building trust. Children take time to warm up, and it’s important to meet them where they are emotionally without rushing that connection.
Maintaining clear and consistent boundaries is just as important. Boundaries help children feel secure and understand expectations.
Open and honest communication between the nanny and the parents is also a key point . Parents value the reassurance that their child is safe and cared for. Regular updates, transparency, and mutual trust help build strong connections that benefit the child. Lastly, respecting a family’s parenting style is important. Every family has its own values, routines, and approaches to raising children.

My experience with special needs children...

Working as a Special Education Classroom Assistant has me interacting with children with special needs daily, these children have a wide variety of different individual needs that I meet to allow them the most success.
