A little bit about me
Another standout experience was my time working at the Beverly Consortium with a kindergarten class, where I supported children with a range of health conditions and behavioral challenges in a structured classroom environment. This role deepened my understanding of individual needs and taught me how to balance patience, structure, and creativity.
My strengths include arts and crafts, imaginative play, and creating a safe, nurturing environment. Above all, I prioritize the safety, happiness, and well-being of every child in my care!

I have many years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens, and I love tailoring activities to match each child’s personality and developmental needs. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative playtime, preparing healthy meals, or navigating those big emotions, I’m here to support both kids and parents alike.
I always prioritize safety, kindness, and open communication. I believe in fostering strong relationships built on trust and consistency, and I take pride in being a positive, calming, and reliable presence in the home.
Looking forward to becoming a part of your family’s village!

What are the responsibilities of a nanny?
Nanny responsibilities range from childcare tasks to assisting with household duties. The exact job description depends on the specific needs of the family. For a special needs nanny, duties might also include providing tailored care and implementing therapeutic activities. Activities can be tailored to the child's interests and abilities. For instance, exploring sensory-friendly exhibits at the Children's Museum of the Arts for a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Check out our guide for a deeper dive into nanny responsibilities.
How should I conduct a nanny interview?
When you find a nanny in New York, the interview process is crucial. Prepare in advance by creating a list of nanny interview questions tailored to your family's needs. These may touch on their experience with special needs children, their training, and their ability to handle potential emergency situations. Remember, it's essential to have a conversation, not just a Q&A session. Here's how to prepare for a nanny interview.
What is a nanny contract and why do I need one?
A nanny contract is an agreement between you and your nanny that outlines key details such as hours, salary, and job duties. It helps set clear expectations and can help prevent misunderstandings down the road. It's also a great place to lay out specifics about caring for children with special needs. For a closer look at the details, see our guide on nanny contracts.
What should I know about nanny payroll and taxes?
Nannies are considered household employees, which means you're responsible for withholding taxes from their paycheck and paying employer taxes. This process can be complex, but a nanny payroll service can help simplify it.
How do I ensure a safe and secure hire with background checks?
Background checks are a vital step in the hiring process. They can provide peace of mind about your potential nanny's criminal history, driving records, and other vital information. It's always wise to inform candidates in advance that you will be conducting a background check. You can learn more about our approach to background checks here.
How do I decide between a part-time, full-time, or summer nanny?
Your decision will depend on your family's needs and schedule. A full-time nanny often works 40 hours a week, while a part-time nanny might work less than that. A summer nanny is typically hired for a set period during the summer break. You might find that one type of arrangement better fits your family's requirements. To help you navigate these choices, we've prepared a guide detailing the costs associated with each type of nanny in New York.
