More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I have been a personal nanny and occasional babysitter to many families. However, outside of that I have worked and engaged in many different settings where I care for children. I have worked as an ABA therapist for over 4 years where I have maintained my RBT certification. I also occasionally tutor grade school children.
As a movement workshop facilitator I also have experience leading groups of children in
interactive and engaging movement-based workshops using hula hoops and interactive props. I create a fun and supportive environment that encourages participation, confidence, self expression and peer interactions along with promoting development of gross motor skill, coordination, balance, communication and body awareness.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I enjoy all kinds of activities from outdoor playgrounds, nature walks, drawing with chalk, water activities, to indoor time where we can create crafts, pretend play, puzzles, movement songs, reading, playing instruments and making music.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Creating trust with not only the parents but the child. Having the child feel safe is of the highest importance. Feeling unsafe can lead to many challenges and unwanted behaviors. I believe that taking lots of time to build rapport with children ensures that they feel comfortable when I am present. This leads to more engagement and learning opportunities via play.
My experience with special needs children...
I have had lots of experience working with children and adults on the spectrum ranging ages from 2-26. I have also personally cared for children with special needs for 2 years as a nanny.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Too many to count, overall I enjoy seeing the children I work with learn and see their growth over the time spent together.

Part-Time Nanny Available in Arcata, CA: Annie M.
I am non-binary and use they/them pronouns and hoping to work with a family who is queer affirming :-) Caring for kids is really special for me because I myself was raised by nannies and au pairs and truly understand how impactful they can be on a child's life. I bring playfulness, patience and compassion to the kids I work with, and absolutely love outdoor activities as well as more introspective artistic projects indoors. It is my joy to get to know kids and what sparks their interest and do my best to meet them where they are at. I've been teaching yoga for over 10 years and enjoy integrating mindfulness into the households I work in. Let's connect! :-)
