A little bit about me

Former early intervention therapist turned nanny during the pandemic. I found I really love nannying and this will be my fourth year in the field. The birth to three early intervention model family-focused and play-based. We always say that we know it might look like we're just playing but that means that we're doing it right! My therapist brain is always running in the background around little ones and I love spotting the emerging skills and helping children tease them out by expanding on play in new ways. In the same vein I believe there's no such thing as too early to experience new, enriching environments. I particularly enjoy going to museums, I find that they truly grow with children, each new skill and developmental phase opens up something new to explore and learn.
