A little bit about me
I am currently a Senior at the University of Kentucky majoring in Theatre. I have worked in two different children’s summer camps since 2023! I started volunteering at Camp Millennium, a camp for children who have been affected by cancer, and have volunteered there every summer since 2023. This was an overnight camp which means I lived with the girls, made sure they had proper hygiene, and even handled medications. I have also worked at the Repertory Theatre of St. Louis as a counselor for their children’s theatre camp. This was a day camp with a school-like set up. I took my group to their classes and when needed assisted teachers. I have also given impromptu theatre and dance lessons myself!

A little bit about me
I grew up as the oldest of six kids. I started babysitting at 13 and got my first nanny job at 15. I nannied for multiple families over the course of 7 years. I’ve worked with adopted children, kids in foster care, and children with different abilities. I have a bachelor’s and masters degree in social work. For the past 3 years I’ve worked as the elementary coordinator for a local non-profit. Here I’ve led our after school and summer programs and provided assistance and support to our 40 students and their families. I’ve decided to step away and take a break because of how much is required from me in this role. I’m looking for a full time nanny job where I can invest deeply in the lives of a smaller number of children and take a break from managing and running daily programming for 40 students. If you have and questions, please feel free to contact me!
