More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I worked as a live-in nanny for a private family in Nakuru, Kenya, where I cared for two children from infancy through preschool age. I also supported infants and toddlers as a Family Support Worker at Guest Home Services, assisting with feeding, hygiene, developmental play, and safety. In both roles, I partnered closely with parents, managed daily routines, and created engaging, age-appropriate activities that supported children’s growth and well-being.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I enjoy engaging children in creative and stimulating activities that match their age and interests. This includes arts and crafts, storytelling, singing songs, outdoor play at the park, and simple cooking or baking projects. I also love organizing educational games, reading together, and encouraging curiosity through play-based learning. With toddlers, I focus on sensory play and routines, while with school-aged children, I enjoy helping with homework and creating fun activities that build confidence and independence.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part about being a nanny is building a safe, trusting, and nurturing relationship with both the child and the family. Children thrive when they feel secure and loved, so I focus on creating a positive environment where they can learn, explore, and grow with confidence. At the same time, I believe it’s essential to support parents’ goals and values, working as a team to provide consistent care and routines.
My experience with special needs children...
In my childcare work, I have supported children with varying needs, including those who required extra patience with learning, routines, and social interactions. I focus on providing consistency, encouragement, and adapting activities to suit each child’s abilities. While I am not a specialized caregiver, I am open, compassionate, and willing to learn from parents and professionals to ensure every child feels supported, included, and cared for.
The most important part about being a nanny...
One of my favorite nanny moments was watching a toddler I cared for take his very first steps. I had been working closely with him on balance and encouraging him through play, and the joy on his face when he realized he could walk was unforgettable. Sharing that moment with his parents and knowing I played a role in supporting his growth reminded me why I love being a nanny — every milestone feels meaningful, and I get to help children discover their own abilities in a safe and loving environment.

I am a mother of 5 and a grandmother of 1. I have years of experience in working with children as when my children were growing up, I used to babysit for local families before and after school. I enjoy teaching children how to become self-independent and to explore new aspects of daily life. I nannied for one particular family for 5 years and I enjoyed very much being able to become a part of that family. During my years of experience, I have learned that when working with children you need patience and lots of understanding especially when working with a young age. I enjoy lots of outdoor activities with children as it allows them to explore and use their imagination.
