A little bit about me

Hello my name is DENISE Adams, I currently work as a preschool teacher at the Commonwealth Children Center located downtown Boston. I create a fun and safe classroom environment where the children have fun playing and learning. I love what I do. I previously worked for six years in the Fall River School department working as a paraprofessional. Again I love working with children. I have an associate degree in early childhood education, a bachelors degree in early care and education and a master’s degree in curriculum development for early childhood. I also have an array of skills that I bring to the table. I look forward to meeting your family’s needs regarding your child’s growth and developmental needs.

A little bit about me

Hello. :) familia
My name is Nikki Catriona Garzon Lopez. I am 34years old. I am from Mexico and I've been a nanny in Boston for the past 4 years. I've been with babies as young as 5 mo up to 7 yo. I am a responsible, punctual, fun, shared person. I like to do activities outdoors when the weather allows it, and at home like arts & crafts, dance and moves, cook with them, etc. I also have a health coach certification that is helpful when kids start eating solids.
I like to teach them to be independent and responsible with their activities. I'm very familiar to the technique baby led weaning. This makes it easier to eat healthy food in their daily life and makes is easier for the baby and the parents to continue on this path.
I believe in a discipline based on patience and respect, understanding the child by being on the same level allows them to express themselves and understand what their needs are.

A little bit about me

Hey there! I am a thoughtful, creative, and attentive nanny looking for full time nanny positions in the Boston area. I have been nannying or working in childcare for almost 9 years. I truly love it and find it to be such fulfilling work. I love working with children, helping them learn and grow, and getting to know their families. In the past I have worked with children of all different age groups, from infants to older elementary school age, so I am open to all age groups! I am CPR and first aid certified and have a clean driving record.

I try to spend as much time as possible outside (as weather permits) and I love doing arts and crafts or anything creative! I try to use the Montessori method and focus on child led, hands on learning and play. But, I am open to whatever works for you and your family! I’m always looking for fun new activities to set up for kids to experience. I strive to offer a safe and engaging environment that fosters development, learning, and fun!
