A little bit about me

I have been working as a nanny and babysitter for nearly a decade and in that time I've worked with both traditional and non-traditional families from a variety of backgrounds, cultures, spiritualities, and faiths.

I have a background in Early Childhood Development and I'm a firm believer that everything is an opportunity for children to learn.

I've been fully vaccinated against Covid and I'm also up to date with all other vaccines.

More About Me

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

Part of my Early Childhood coursework required supervised time spent working with children in a daycare setting.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy imaginative play - its great being able to see how clever and creative children can be when you give them no limits.

I also like to sneak in some learning into everyday play. Things like counting our steps to practice numbers, or fill-in-the-blank games can really help kids who have trouble learning and memorizing the basics through traditional methods.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Respecting the trust that parents have in me. Especially in the early days of being with a new family, when the parents still don't know me very well. They're taking a pretty big leap of faith and trusting that I'll care for and love their children the way they do and that's not something I take lightly.

My experience with special needs children...

I cared for a premature newborn with health concerns

The most important part about being a nanny...

A moment that still makes me emotional when I think about it is when the four year old I was nannying at the time suddenly said, "I really love that you're my nanny." It really meant a lot to me!
