More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I bring several years of childcare experience through my work as a daycare assistant teacher, summer camp counselor, and trusted babysitter for multiple families.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love planning unique activities that keep kids engaged both indoors and outdoors. Indoors, I enjoy setting up hands-on crafts, sensory play bins, and simple science experiments that spark curiosity and creativity. Outdoors, I like to bring learning into play through nature walks, scavenger hunts, sidewalk chalk games, and obstacle courses that build both confidence and teamwork. Whether it’s a cozy story time inside or a sunny adventure outside, I focus on activities that encourage imagination, exploration, and fun while also supporting children’s development.
The most important part about being a nanny...
I believe the most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and nurturing environment where children feel seen, valued, and understood. I don’t just supervise. I truly connect with each child, celebrate their milestones, encourage their curiosity, and support their unique personalities. Parents can trust that I will care for their children with patience, consistency, and genuine affection, while planning activities that spark joy, learning, and imagination. My goal is to help children feel happy, confident, and loved every single day, while giving parents the peace of mind that their little ones are in caring hands.
My experience with special needs children...
I also have meaningful experience caring for children with special needs. Through my work and personal connections, I’ve supported children who needed extra patience, consistency, and individualized care. I’ve helped with daily routines, learning activities, and emotional support, always focusing on creating a safe and encouraging environment. My close bond with one child in particular showed me how rewarding it can be to provide stability, understanding, and genuine care, and it strengthened my passion for working with children of all abilities.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite moments with kids are the ones where their personalities truly shine — like when a child masters something new they’ve been working hard on, and their whole face lights up with pride.
