A little bit about me

A little bit about myself I’m kind, compassionate and a caring person born and raised in Houston tx, I’ve always been around kids so naturally I turned to child care as a profession at the age of 16 and never looked back.
My child care experience expands across all age groups. I developed my career in child care in high school when I took child development and worked as an assistant in the infant room through 4 years of high school. After my high school graduation I’ve upgraded to working with private families as their nanny. Fun facts about me I find such joy being a positive influence in a child’s life. I love keeping the kids entertained during our free time, playing games and doing activities, crafts and listening to music
However, in my free time I like photography, makeup, coloring, cooking, baking and so much more.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is building a strong, trusting relationship with the children and their family. It's about creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel loved, understood, and supported. Whether it's through play, learning, or simply being present, your role is to help them grow emotionally, socially, and cognitively, while also fostering a sense of security and joy.

It's not just about providing care, but also about being a positive, reliable influence in their lives—someone they can rely on for consistency, kindness, and encouragement.

My experience with special needs children...

During my middle school years, I chose to assist in a special needs classroom instead of taking gym class. This experience allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of how to support children with a variety of learning and developmental needs. While my experience may not be extensive, it has given me a strong foundation in patience, empathy, and adaptability—qualities I believe are essential when caring for any child.
