A little bit about me

I hope this message finds you well, I am 25 years old with 7 years of professional nanny experience. With my previous nanny families I have helped with sleeping routines, which included adjusting and changing into a quiet place, meal prep for babies and toddlers, which also means introducing solids or new foods to toddlers by baby led weaning. I have also, helped with school activities, projects, and homework. I am also, an extension of you as a parent and will follow your way of parenting. During my day with your child I do encourage independent play no matters what age to self explore but additional to that, I have multiple activities that I would love to do with your children such as painting, reading, sensory bins, arts and crafts all within a safe, and healthy environment. I understand times are different but before covid I have gone out and taken previous nanny kids to the zoo, playground, beach, and children’s museum.
