A little bit about me

Hi! I am planning to move to the Boulder area from Minnesota later this spring. I would love to find a live-in nanny position for a family with one or two children. I have always loved caring for young children and being active and helping them learn. I am not currently CPR certified, but have been certified in the past and would be open to renewing my certification if desired. Sadly, I cannot work in a home with pets because I am allergic. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

A little bit about me

I've enjoyed working with kids in a variety of capacities for about 20 years. I've worked as a nanny, babysitter, swim teacher, & an intervention specialist with kids with Autism. I prioritize working with clear communication & reasonable structure. I break tasks down into manageable steps for teaching & try to "always catch the good" by emphasizing what's going right instead of just pointing out what needs to be adjusted. My grad program teaches a person-centered approach to first meet kids where they're at in order to help them get to where they want to go. I enjoy listening to Dr. Becky Kennedy's podcast "Good Inside" which is based on the premise that every child is good, even when they're behavior feels challenging; It's our job as their adults to help them navigate tough situations & emotions with compassion. The best learning comes from actively engaging in the world around us with curiosity & learning goals can easily be woven into natural experiences throughout the day.
