A little bit about me

The main role of a great nanny is to provide a safe, caring, nurturing and stimulating environment in which the children thrive and develop.

Over the past 10 years I have had the privilege of working with many different children. I have experience from ages 2 weeks old to 12 years old. I have also cared for twins and children with special needs. I consider myself a creative individual. I would say my specialty would be in creative crafts and drawing, but not limited to only that. I also like spending nice days playing outside with children. Creating fun new games that challenge them physically as well as tapping into their imaginations is something I like to do on a regular basis. I believe the relationship between parents and nanny is extremely important. Trust and strong communication is a must. I have found it helpful to keep a journal logging meals, naps, diaper changes, and important milestones that happen throughout the day for parents to reference and review. I can provide nanny, professional, and personal references for you.

A little bit about me

Hi there, family! My name is Kanyia and I am a psychology graduate, Registered Behavior Technician, and lifelong lover of working with kids. I have been in children’s spaces in some form since I was a teenager, from babysitting and daycare assistance to running summer camp programming and delivering clinical ABA therapy. I bring a developmental psychology lens to everything I do, which means I am not just keeping kids safe and entertained, I am constantly thinking about where they are in their growth, what they need to thrive, and how to make every interaction meaningful. I am creative, fun to work with as I specialize in play based learning, and highly organized!
