A little bit about me

I am an empty nester with 2 grown daughters. I have worked since January 2026 as a paraprofessional for elementary special education K-5 and love it. I feel so much joy making a difference in their lives. I spent 18 years of my life as a 9-1-1 Dispatcher and worked 9 years at the hospital. I love being outdoors and nature, as well as crafting and adventures. I am very good handling emergencies and being able to remain calm and think clearly. I would be interested in caring for children from infant thru age 10. I want to show children there is so much more to see, experience and enjoy without always being on electronics. Reading is important as well as being in nature.
For the past 3 summers I have worked at a very busy seasonal restaurant, but have realized in my new adventure as a paraprofessional, that I feel so much joy watching the excitement of kids learning or going on adventures (nature scavenger hunts, fun dress up days, exploring), that this is my calling.

My experience with special needs children...

Autistic, ADHD, trauma victims

The most important part about being a nanny...

As a paraprofessional, my favorite moment was doing a scavenger hunt with a 6yo autistic child and watching him engage and focus, along with him experiencing so much joy as we found items on our list. I also love to hear his giggle as we play hide and seek in the sensory room.

Joanna F. - Seeking Work in Coloma

Part-Time Nanny Available in Coloma, MI: Joanna F.

I am a mother of 3 grown children who I feel have been raised quite well. I am familiar with the needs of working parents as I was one myself and finding good childcare was difficult, but I did actually succeed! I am highly energetic, efficient, honest, and fun. Although this is not a requirement, I am highly educated (2 MS degrees) and I am a Registered Dietician. I'm sure a working parent can relate, but I am very good at "spinning plates" as multi-tasking and not allowing things to fall thru the cracks is a specialty of mine.
