A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Philippe. I’m a French-American professional, native French speaker, and certified tennis coach with many years of international experience teaching and working with children of all ages and backgrounds.

I’m patient, caring, responsible, active, reliable, and easygoing. I enjoy helping children learn, build confidence, stay active, and have fun in a positive environment. In addition to childcare, I can offer private tennis lessons and introduce children to French through conversation and everyday activities.

I’m also happy to help with school transportation, activities, homework routines, errands, cooking, light housekeeping, gardening, pet care, and other household needs.

I’m particularly interested in a live-in position where I can build a genuine relationship of trust with a family, respect their privacy and lifestyle, and become a dependable, positive presence in their home. I’m flexible, open-minded, and happy to adapt to each family’s needs.

More About Me

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

My many years as a professional tennis coach, working closely with children of all ages in private lessons, group programs, tennis camps, and junior programs. I was responsible for their safety, supervision, activities, encouragement, and well-being while they were under my care. My experience has taught me to be patient, attentive, responsible, and comfortable working with children with different personalities, ages, and needs.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy keeping children active, engaged, and having fun. I especially enjoy teaching tennis, playing outdoor games and sports, going to parks, walking, biking, and organizing fun physical activities. As a native French speaker, I also enjoy introducing children to French through games, conversation, music, and everyday activities. I’m happy to help with homework, reading, creative activities, educational games, and outings. I enjoy adapting activities to each child’s age, personality, and interests while creating a positive, encouraging, and safe environment.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, caring, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, respected, and supported. Building trust with both the children and their parents is essential. I believe a great nanny should be patient, reliable, attentive, and a positive role model while respecting each family’s values, routines, and parenting style.

My experience with special needs children...

I don’t have formal professional experience specifically caring for children with special needs. However, throughout my many years as a tennis coach, I have worked with children with different abilities, personalities, learning styles, and individual needs. I’m patient, attentive, encouraging, and comfortable adapting my approach to each child. I’m also very open to learning and following a family’s specific routines, guidance, and requirements.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I haven’t worked formally as a nanny yet, but some of my favorite moments as a tennis coach have been seeing children accomplish something they initially thought they couldn’t do. Watching a child gain confidence, smile, and feel proud after learning a new skill is incredibly rewarding. Those moments remind me that working with children is not only about teaching or supervision, but also about encouraging them, building trust, and helping them believe in themselves.
