More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
My background bridges the gap between high-level logistics and hands-on care. Beyond traditional nannying for infants and toddlers, I serve as a Job Coach and Community Living Support Specialist for neurodivergent individuals. I have extensive experience in 'Full-Takeover' care, managing 24/7 household operations for up to a week at a time. My history also includes serving as a teacher’s aide for inclusive classrooms and volunteering with the Boys & Girls Club.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I specialize in 'Developmental Adventures.' For infants, this means sensory-rich floor time and milestone tracking. For school-aged kids, I love 'active mentorship'—teaching the resilience of golf, the teamwork of sports, or the curiosity of a museum trip. My goal is always to find the 'classroom' in the real world, whether we’re hiking in the park or navigating a busy airport during family travel.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part is being a consistent, trusted anchor for the family. As a 'strategic partner' to parents, my job is to provide the peace of mind that allows a household to thrive. It’s about looking past surface-level behavior to understand a child’s unique 'why' and ensuring every day—from routine medical appointments to big travel adventures—is managed with reliability and heart.
My experience with special needs children...
I specialize in neurodivergent care, specifically supporting children with Autism, ADHD, and ODD. My approach is rooted in 'Proactive Redirection' and positive guidance; I use 'scenario mapping' to anticipate triggers and focus on 'behavioral redirection' to maintain a calm, agile environment. I am experienced with seizure protocols, speech therapy reinforcement, and OT exercises, always integrating these goals into fun, everyday activities so learning feels like play.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite moments are the 'confidence clicks'—when a child masters a skill they previously found overwhelming. Whether it’s helping a school-aged child navigate the 'mental game' of golf to build resilience or seeing an infant reach a major motor milestone during our daily 'rotation,' I love being the person who helps them realize they are capable of big things.
