More About Me
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love staying active and keeping things fun, no matter where we are! Whether we’re playing at the park, making up games in the backyard, or getting creative with crafts at home, I’m always up for an adventure. I enjoy playing sports, dancing around the living room, and using my big imagination to turn everyday moments into something exciting — like building forts, putting on plays, or coming up with our own stories.
I also love to weave learning into play — counting steps at the park, naming colors while crafting, or reading together before nap time. Encouraging healthy habits is just as important to me, so I find fun ways to get kids excited about trying fruits and veggies, whether it’s making colorful snack plates or letting them help with simple, hands-on kitchen activities. I have lots of energy and love bringing creativity, movement, and learning into every day!

The most important part about being a nanny...
An important part of being a nanny is building a genuine connection with each child — understanding their personality, needs, and what makes them smile. It’s about creating a space where they feel safe, loved, and free to be themselves. I believe in guiding with patience, kindness, and consistency, while also keeping things fun and full of laughter.
Being a nanny isn’t just about caring for children; it’s about helping them grow, learn, and discover the world in their own unique way. Whether it’s teaching small life lessons, celebrating milestones, or simply being there to listen, I know the impact of those moments lasts far beyond the day.

The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite nanny moment was when one of the kids I cared for made me a handmade card that said, “You’re my favorite grown-up to play with.” It reminded me that being a nanny isn’t just about routines and schedules — it’s about building love, trust, and lasting memories.
