"Silvana was a very nurturing nanny. She had the difficult task of being the first nanny to care for my 6 month old son. She knew what to do and helped my son quickly overcome the separation anxiety. She brought him toys and played the flute for him to introduce him to new things. I am very grateful for the care she provided."

"Annah was reliable, flexible, creative, and trustworthy with our kids. She handles stressful situations well and appropriately. She ensured our children were safe and happy. She also helped us a great deal with our dogs when we needed to go out of town. We even tried to get her to move with us when we moved across the country. Would hire her again in a second! She will make a great addition to your family!"

A little bit about me
I have been working with two amazing families in a nanny share since May of 2022. As families have grown we are looking to find a new addition to add to our existing share (with what will be a 5 month old) starting October 12th 2026!
I find myself having the most fun creatively expressing myself through 3D arts, and full body movement (swimming, biking, dance, yoga, etc) . I prioritize connecting with nature, exploring music, and deepening my childlike wonder through philosophy.
