A little bit about me

I am fresh out of college, and I have been working with kids for about 7 years. I started as a babysitter and moved on to camp counselor. My most recent experience has been about 2 years of work as an after school caregiver and teacher at a taekwondo establishment.
I love kids, and working at my previous job taught me a lot about discipline, respect, and responsibility.
I am a big music and art person with a "yes I can attitude" that I would love to share with others!
I love the outdoors and really love the hands on teaching approach.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love playing both indoor and outdoor games with kids! With my experience as a camp counselor I have many fun and or educational games for kids!
I also enjoy exploring and learning things with the kids!

The most important part about being a nanny...

For me, safety, positivity, and healthy boundaries are some of the most important things to me as a nanny! Watching them learn and grow safely while being a positive role model is one of the joys of working with kids!

My experience with special needs children...

I have cared for children at summer camps and during my time as an after school caregiver with special needs. Mainly children on the spectrum.

The most important part about being a nanny...

When I was babysitting one of the families I worked for had two boys ages 6 and 9.
The youngest was scared of the outside and preferred his games in his room. But one day the parents allowed me to take them to a park. The youngest was nervous and over stimulated by the park, but I was teaching them about history and nature as a whole. They seemed to enjoy that and the eldest was learning with his hands. I was trying to lighten the youngest’s mood when i was joking with him, and i immediately slipped and fell in the mud. The boys cackled and for some reason that gave the youngest confidence. He began exploring and asking questions all on his own! It was embarrassing for me but the joy on his face and the bravery that came over him just made my day. It was worth it and it made me so happy to see him come out of his shell and try something new!
