A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Ashton, and I’m a nurturing, creative nanny with a strong passion for early childhood development. I truly enjoy spending time with children and love engaging them through hands-on activities like arts and crafts, nature walks, and imaginative play. I’m especially inspired by the Montessori approach, which encourages independence, curiosity, and respect for a child’s natural development. I always strive to create a calm, supportive environment where children can explore at their own pace and feel safe, seen, and encouraged. I'm excited to bring my energy, creativity, and care to a family that values connection, learning, and joyful everyday moments.
