A little bit about me

A little Mary Poppins, a little Ms. Rachel, a little Aunt Tab. I value clear boundaries and kind communication. I love to learn and I love to teach. I believe in Kahlil Gibran's perspective in The Prophet's "On Children" where he says children have just as much to teach us as we do them. I have tremendous respect for the fact that young humans are discovering a new world every day. It's always felt like the highest honor to be able to protect, guide, and support children in the day-to-day of their early years. When I am not caretaking, I am working on a lifestyle brand created for people on a self-improvement path with a focus on mindfulness.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

as a teacher's assistant for a kindergarten class summer session and as an attendant at a daycare for close to a year in my late teens. Also, as an eldest daughter, I supported my Mom in caring for my younger brother who is 7 years my junior.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

include art, dance, singing, teaching, / tutoring, reading, walking, visiting playgrounds, museums, and parks.

The most important part about being a nanny...

is having a positive impact on a child's character development through nurturing their self-confidence.

My experience with special needs children...

includes accommodating the needs of neurodivergent individuals. I understand that caring for special needs children is a nuanced experience requiring presence of mind. I prioritize emotional regulation as the foundation when relating to special needs children as I believe that trust and safety is the cornerstone of all healthy interactions.

The most important part about being a nanny...

happened recently. Izabelle has not been in my consistent care in over two years. However, we have maintained contact and I occasionally step in when her parents need support. I have always called her Izzy and I found out she "doesn't like that". She very articulately explained what alternate options existed. I cared for her from 4 months to just before her 3rd birthday, she's 5 now. It is very rewarding to see her ability to assert her wants so eloquently at such a young age.
