A little bit about me

A childcare model of responsiveness and connectivity is central to my philosophy. I believe in honoring children as complete individuals worthy of respect, while also catering to the unique needs that come with having a developing brain.

I'm a creative person who loves painting and crafts, and has an affinity for energetic play and imaginative storytelling. I have a background in professional cooking and am perfectly willing to cook delicious meals for the family when needed. I'm also happy to help with tidying and laundry. Additionally, I have experience working with learning disabilities and ADHD.

I believe having a strong relationship with the families I work with helps the children thrive and feel secure. Because of this, I'm happy to work with the right family for many years.

I take the Covid-19 pandemic very seriously and can send proof of vaccination.

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Arts and crafts of all kinds, basketball, hide-and-seek, board games, taking walks, baking treats, imaginative play, reading books, dancing, and fort-building are some of my favorite activities.

The most important part about being a nanny...

21st century life is demanding. Between full time jobs, cooking, cleaning, errands, and connecting with kids, sometimes it's impossible to do it all, let alone have any time to recharge. The most important part of being a nanny, for me, is providing that extra hand that makes all the difference. Being there to provide that essential activity time, help with homework, to do some laundry, or prep a meal, can take so much weight off of a parent's shoulders and create a less stressful, more harmonious family environment where children can flourish. To me, this is what being a nanny is all about.

My experience with special needs children...

My last job included caring for a boy with ADHD and dyspraxia from when he was 4 years old to when he was seven. Additionally, I've helped care for autistic family members for as long I can remember.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment has got to be when a very shy four year old I work with started asking his parents to call me when he fought with his older brother. Though he was not yet able to articulate his feelings, he wanted to talk to me about what happened that made him feel hurt. It meant the world to me to watch this easily embarrassed, private child go from running away and hiding when his feelings were hurt, to seeking out support and comfort.
