"We brought Kenzie on when our daughter was a newborn, and she has stayed with us until now, when our daughter is almost 2. I cannot praise her highly enough - she is incredibly knowledgeable about child development (and a key reason our daughter is significantly ahead in language skills), she's always patient and kind, and she's perpetually looking for ways to improve our daughter's life and have fun with her. I have, in three different situations, had other parents or nannies approach me on the playground completely unprompted to tell me how good Kenzie is as a nanny. She's also a genuine joy to spend time with, and will always feel like a piece of our family, even as she transitions to "occasional sitter" for us instead of full-time nanny. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you might have, but I once again cannot speak highly enough about her."

Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love to go on walks and visit museums and parks! On rainy days I have plenty of art activities on deck, or I will always be happy to have a dance party or reading break!
The most important part about being a nanny...
Making a lasting positive impact!
The early years are incredibly important in a child's developmental psychology. I believe the most important part of being a nanny is nurturing a safe, fun, and educational environment for each child so that they may thrive!

My experience with special needs children...
I have cared for many children with autism and adhd and I am very comfortable caring for children with these types of personalities!
I have moderate experience with children who have more individualized special needs. I have a B.S in psychology and I am prepared to offer informed, empathetic care tailored to each child's needs!

The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite memory is of a three year old I used to care for: when her mother became pregnant with her younger sister, the three y/o decided to call her "baby broccoli." No one could figure out why, but she did this until the baby was born. It put a smile on my face every time I heard her say it!
