A little bit about me

Hello I'm Merrill! I've been a nanny and babysitter for over 10 years and I really love working with children. When I'm not working, I love to spend time with my two dogs, Noomi and Nona at the dog park with my fiancé, Kevin. Noomi and Nona sound like two Italian grandmas. Hard to believe but they are even cuter! I also perform stand up comedy and acting. I find those jobs rewarding as well but even kids are more predictable than my career. Performing has made nannying and babysitting more fun because I love to make kids laugh and create characters out of their stuffies. It also helps a lot when it comes to redirection, meltdowns, and bedtime. I think what I love most about nannying is having a positive impact on their lives and helping them build confidence in every way. I also love to teach and see how their minds grow and learn.
Thank you for taking the time to read about me and I look forward to meeting you!

More About Me

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

Day Care in Austin, Texas.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love reading, playing, teaching, coloring, doing puzzles, arts and crafts, painting, going on walks. I enjoy doing everything! I love sharing interesting facts about animals or plants. It's fun to engage them in sensory activities as well.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being an integral part of their emotional and mental growth. Helping kids become more confident and witness their personalities develop. I love reading and teaching. It is so rewarding and special to see a child learn and get excited about it. I think the most important part is having a kind and loving impact on them and seeing that in them! It’s truly an honor to be a part of their early lives and help nurture them.

My experience with special needs children...

I worked with a 10 year old boy for a year who has autism and ADHD. I met his teachers at his school and didn't have any formal training but I helped him with his homework, picked him up from school, played with him, ran errands with him, and prepared his dinner and bath time.
