A little bit about me

I have been working with children since high school, starting with babysitting and growing into afterschool nanny roles for several families over the past seven years. My experience is primarily with elementary school-aged children, though I have worked with toddlers as well.

I am an energetic and enthusiastic caregiver who loves spending time with kids. Whether reading, doing crafts, cooking, playing sports, or exploring outside, I prioritize hands-on, screen-free activities that keep children engaged and curious.

What draws me to childcare is the opportunity to make a real impact. I have fond memories of my own childhood nanny, and that relationship has always inspired the kind of caregiver I want to be. I bring patience and a calm presence to every situation, focused on creating a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel supported and encouraged to grow.

Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, pilates, spending time outdoors, and trying new restaurants with friends and family.
