A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Halonah but you can call me Halo or Hal. I’m an energetic and creative 26 year old. I started out in film school, but recently fell into nannying and I love it so much.

I approach caring for your kids with tenderness and love, treating them as if they were my own and aiming to become a cherished member of your family. My focus is on giving your child a safe, nurturing, routine-focused, and creative space to learn and grow into a wonderful person. I love outdoor activities and nature walks, pretend play, encouraging independent time, and special weekly outings when appropriate. I’m firm but kind, and will work with you on any challenges your child may come to.

In my personal time I love to play tennis, walk, hike, and bike, and play board games with my friends. I love to cook and travel! I'm excited to meet you and your family!

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

infant: tummy time! sensory play, gentle baby massages, peekaboo, making silly faces, singing.

toddler: messy play - exploring different textures (play dough, water, sand). Outdoor play and nature walks. Engage with the child by asking them what they're seeing and hearing.

child ages 4-6: arts and crafts - drawing, painting, crafting. I watched a 3 year old who lovedddd to water the plants. Role-playing. Set up a pretend play area with costumes, props, play "the floor is lava". Read books together and discuss the stories.

7+: age appropriate board games, sports! soccer, basketball etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Being a nanny is one of the most fulfilling jobs I have ever had. Having the opportunity to positively impact children's lives and witness their growth and development is so so special. Building strong positive relationships and bonds with both the children and their parents is also rewarding. But effectively communicating with the parents to ensure alignment in caregiving approaches and expectations, is also vital.

Michelle R. - Seeking Work in Boulder

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Boulder, CO: Michelle R.

I've enjoyed working with kids in a variety of capacities for about 20 years. I've worked as a nanny, babysitter, swim teacher, & an intervention specialist with kids with Autism. I prioritize working with clear communication & reasonable structure. I break tasks down into manageable steps for teaching & try to "always catch the good" by emphasizing what's going right instead of just pointing out what needs to be adjusted. My grad program teaches a person-centered approach to first meet kids where they're at in order to help them get to where they want to go. I enjoy listening to Dr. Becky Kennedy's podcast "Good Inside" which is based on the premise that every child is good, even when they're behavior feels challenging; It's our job as their adults to help them navigate tough situations & emotions with compassion. The best learning comes from actively engaging in the world around us with curiosity & learning goals can easily be woven into natural experiences throughout the day.
