More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Teaching and playing.
Favorite outings for kids are the fire station. Great for three and up!

Cooking as a science experiment: explaining why yeast makes gasses for bread to rise.

For under 2 I find potty training SO MUCH FUN!
Baby snuggles I get the joy of perpetual babies in this work and that also means snuggles!

Calming fussy babies- sometimes its gas, other times its nervous system recalibration.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Is contributing to a childs experience and home with an intentional mindset that I can help direct their experience now for a positive future.
I also put an emphasis on age appropriate boundaries setting for ages 18months to 29 years of age. Having talks about stranger danger, to talks about how to properly address bullies, I find myself in a unique position to help prepare kids for a multitude of situations developmentally and intellectually.
I enjoy adding art and nature to each time I meet a child, finding their personal interests, and helping them learn through Montessori processes about their interests.

I also find myself playing a role of conferring with parents about how to overcome specific obstacles with their child, and it's very special to be apart of team that supports a child growing through their niche.

My experience with special needs children...

Im the oldest and only fully developed daughter a family with special needs kids. I have always been a caregiver by nature.
I have worked privately with three families with special needs kids.
I have also worked in a clinical housing program for developmentally challenged adults.
All together I have about 5 years work experience with special needs a citizens, and over 22,000 hours of care with special needs related work.
