A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a 20-year-old college student majoring in Psychology with a genuine passion for working with children. As the middle child of 9 siblings, I’ve grown up surrounded by children and have developed a natural, outgoing, patient, and caring personality.
I have lots of experience working with infants and toddlers and truly enjoy creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for children to learn and grow. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I take safety and the well-being of every child in my care very seriously.

I’m dependable, energetic, and always happy to get involved—whether that means playing, helping with routines, reading stories, or simply being there to provide a caring and positive presence. I would love the opportunity to become a trusted and reliable nanny for your family!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have approximately 5 years of experience caring for infants and toddlers, including 5 years of babysitting experience. I also spent 2 years working with children, including children with special needs, through my psychology internship. These experiences have helped me develop patience, responsibility, communication skills, and a strong understanding of children’s individual needs and personalities. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and cared for.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love keeping children active, engaged, and having fun! Some of my favorite activities to do with children include going to the park, playing games, doing puzzles, arts and crafts, reading books, and exploring new places. I also enjoy age-appropriate outings like shopping or getting a special treat. I like to make activities fun while also encouraging creativity, learning, independence, and social skills.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I believe a great nanny should be patient, dependable, attentive, and understanding of each child’s individual needs. It’s also important to build a strong relationship with both the children and their parents so everyone feels confident and comfortable

My experience with special needs children...

I have 2 years of experience working with children with special needs through my psychology internship. This experience taught me the importance of patience, understanding, flexibility, and adapting activities and routines to meet each child’s individual needs. I enjoy creating a supportive and comfortable environment where every child feels valued, safe, and included.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite experiences with a child has been watching them grow more confident and independent over time. I especially enjoy being part of those little moments when a child learns something new, reaches a milestone, or becomes excited about an activity they once found challenging. Seeing their personality come out and knowing I helped create a safe, positive, and encouraging environment is one of the most rewarding parts of childcare for me.
