Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love making busy bags for younger aged children.
Arts & Crafts!!!
(Probably my most favorite thing to do)
Treasure hunts!
Disco dance!
Singing (even though I’m terrible at it)
Acting out characters from storybooks, dress-up, make-up, etc. Include children in the story by asking questions about the story, for example, if the story was about superhero’s, a question I could ask would be… “If you had one superpower what would you choose? and why?”, Etc.
Basketball
Tag
Hide and seek
(which I still play with my two kids)
Outside activities: walking, hiking, playground, etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...
Being a Mom is the greatest gift of all. Some people believe that we are born with only one gift or purpose in life, though I believe being a Mom is only just the beginning. One of my life’s purpose is being a Mom, though for my kids, it’s me being the best Mom I know how to be at this moment. Learning from experience and growing each day together and individually helps to steer us towards finding our true self and other life purposes as well. My children give me strength! They challenge me in ways I never would think to challenge myself. They play the most important role in my quest for knowledge so that the things I learn I can share with them and hopefully they share with their own children when it comes that time, I learn a lot through my kids and everyday I’m always discovering something new about myself. My kids never cease to tell me what’s on their mind. We have the best honest and open relationship. Trust is key! …. And…. I just love their brutal honesty, well sometimes! haha
My experience with special needs children...
My 12yr old son lives with ADHD everyday and at times it can be challenging, though I have learned to foster breathing, counting and visual skills and techniques that seem to sooth and calm him when he has his moments. One very simple technique for example, knelling down to his eye level when speaking. This gives him a comforting feeling as opposed to him looking up and feeling intimidated.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Everyday because there’s never a dull moment!

Hello,
I'm a recent college graduate who is planning on attending Columbia University for my masters in School Psychology in the fall. I have over five years of experience working with children both as a nanny and running summer camps. I like to spend time outside, read, and do crafts.
I believe in working to make children feel safe while also ensuring they have fun and try new things. As a nanny I'm committed to creating a space for children to learn new skills and have engaging experiences. I have experience working with a large range of ages but am most versed in children aged 3-10.
