A little bit about me

Hey there! I’m Sierra, a fun, energetic, and reliable nanny who knows how to balance playtime with structure. With experience caring for children ages 1–8, I bring patience, creativity, and a calm, steady presence to every family I work with. I’m CPR/First Aid certified and confident in managing everything from meals and homework to bedtime routines and meltdowns. I love keeping kids engaged with creative play, learning activities, and consistent routines that help them feel safe and supported. I’m also happy to help around the house with light cleaning, errands, and anything else to make your life easier. I lead with love, but I don’t play about structure and safety! 🧸💕

Arts & Crafts – from finger painting to DIY projects, I love letting kids get creative and express themselves.
Story Time & Reading – bringing books to life with voices and fun questions to build their love for reading.
Outdoor Play – parks, walks, chalk art, nature hunts, or just running around getting energy out.
Imaginative Play – dress-up, pretend cooking, building forts, and role-playing fun characters.
Learning Games – simple counting, matching, puzzles, flashcards, or memory games to keep little minds sharp.
Music & Dance – playing kid-friendly music, dancing around the living room, or making up silly songs together.
Cooking Together – simple, safe kitchen tasks like decorating cupcakes or stirring batter.
Sensory Play – water tables, sand play, play-dough, or rice bins with scoops and toys.
Routine Helpers – turning chores into games, like race-to-clean or sticker charts for brushing teeth.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Earning trust, showing up with love, and being the calm in their chaos. It’s not just babysitting—it’s building little humans up.

My experience with special needs children...

I have hands-on experience working with children with special needs, including autism and speech delays. I understand the importance of patience, clear communication, and consistency when supporting children with developmental differences. I’ve helped with implementing calming strategies during sensory overload, supported non-verbal or low-verbal children through visual aids and sign cues, and worked on building social and emotional skills through structured routines and play. My military background has trained me to stay calm under pressure and adapt quickly—qualities that have served me well when creating safe, supportive environments for children who need a little extra care. Every child is different, and I’m committed to meeting them where they are with compassion, structure, and encouragement.
