A little bit about me

Hi,
I am a Newborn Care Specialist with over four years of hands-on experience caring for newborns. I am CPR and First Aid certified, fully vaccinated, and able to provide excellent references upon request.

I can support families with overnight newborn care, daytime care, feeding and sleep routines, diapering, soothing, bottle preparation, and other light baby-related tasks.

I also have experience caring for toddlers and have successfully completed the Au Pair program. I am available for part-time daytime care for both newborns and toddlers, depending on the family's schedule and needs.

My top priorities are always the child's safety, development, and making their day happy and engaging. I also value clear and open communication with parents and am happy to assist with light child-related tasks.

If either of these options sounds like a good fit for your family, I would be happy to connect.

Please feel free to message me for more information.

Thank you!

A little bit about me

Hi there! I am a fun-loving and reliable caretaker with several years of experience looking after younger siblings and cousins. I have spent a couple of years as a school picture photographer for elementary students. I was a teacher's assistant for preteens at the Emerson College Youth Film Program, where I also eventually taught my own directing class. I volunteered and taught the basics of filmmaking to elementary students at the Boys & Girls Club, helping the children in the completion of their own short film which they screened at a community event. I’ve danced for over 14 years as a ballerina and have extensive soccer and yoga training as well. I am a lover of nature, art, and science. Thank you for your time and consideration in advance!

A little bit about me

Being a nanny, especially one who works with infants, is a privilege that I do not take lightly and I appreciate the chance to support families during this big change. Across my almost 10-year career, I have worked full-time in a daycare center and six private homes, primarily with newborns and toddlers.

I find joy in creating spaces that engage my little ones, planning activities that incorporate all areas of children's development, and seeing the outcomes of those efforts. Outside of the traditional nanny role, I received my birth and post-partum certifications from DONA International in 2021. Since then, I have attended two births and continue to volunteer assisting families in need of support. In 2023 I completed my Newborn Care Specialist training via Newborn Care Solutions to deepen my understanding of newborns, especially those born prematurely and with additional medical needs
