A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm a creative, reliable and caring helper. Along with being a live-in nanny for one year, I have also volunteered at the Toddler and Infant Program at Perkins School for the Blind. I'm currently pursuing my masters to become a Teacher of Students with Visual Impairments, hoping to work with the youngest population. In the past, I've had wonderful relationships with the parents as well as the children and I hope that continues. I like to lead with honesty and compassion.

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Baking, making, dancing, and getting outside to the beach or park.

The most important part about being a nanny...

For me, I think it is listening. I try to really listen to a child or baby when they are communicating with me, however that may be. I think honestly listening can lead to a deepening of trust and independence for the kids. I find play, story time, and exploring outside is more fun when they can identify themselves as the explorer, the reader and so on.
