Going on nature walks and exploring outside
Building forts and playing imaginative games
Visiting parks, playgrounds, or museums
Baking simple recipes together
Helping with homework and learning through play

My experience with special needs children...
I have experience working with children with special needs, including those with ADHD and autism. I support their routines with patience, clear communication, and a focus on creating a safe, encouraging environment where they can thrive.
The most important part about being a nanny...
One of my kids had recently discovered his love for drawing. It was such a joy for me to see him enjoy creating things and see the pride he had in himself for his work. I loved encouraging and fostering his new skill with kind and supportive words. He ended up drawing me a goodbye picture when I last saw him.
