A little bit about me

I'm a master’s-level ECE educator with over 15 years experience supporting babies, toddlers, and young children. I specialize in high-quality, intentional care nurturing social-emotional development, curiosity, and a love of learning through play, nature, and meaningful experiences.

I stay current with best practices in child development and believe strong emotional regulation, communication, and secure relationships are the foundation for all learning. I support children in understanding their feelings, problem-solving with peers, and building confidence in a warm, respectful environment.

With a background in forest school and Reggio-inspired education, I prioritize outdoor exploration and hands-on, open-ended activities that spark creativity and support developmental milestones.

I am seeking families who value high-quality care and are excited about a nanny share, offering premier care, rich social experiences, and shared cost. Send me a message for more information!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Empathy and guidance, along with close relationships with parents, children, and any therapists and teachers on a child's team.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience teaching several children aged 2-5 with autism and sensory needs. I also have worked with children with muscular dystrophy, speech delays, and motor delays. In each case it has been important to have a strong relationship with parents and therapists in order to take an active role in supporting each child's goals.

The most important part about being a nanny...

When I was a teacher, my class of 2-year-olds was riding the bus around town. We passed through the University of Colorado campus. By the stadium, a small paddock had been set up with a real buffalo inside! We quickly got off the bus, said hi to the buffalo from a safe distance, and met the cowgirls and cowboys who were taking care of her. It was such a special day.
