A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Ana, and I love working with kids. I grew up in a neighborhood surrounded by younger children, so I’ve always enjoyed helping out, playing games, and being someone they can look up to. I’ve worked as both a lifeguard and a swim coach, which taught me how to keep kids safe, stay patient, and make learning fun.

I graduated from St. Lawrence University with a major in Communication and a minor in Education, where I learned about child development and effective ways to support kids as they grow and learn. I’m originally from Boston and currently live here, but I’m looking to move to New York City soon.

I’m responsible, energetic, and caring, and I love planning fun activities, helping with homework, and creating a safe and positive environment for children. I would love the opportunity to support your family and be someone your kids enjoy spending time with!

A little bit about me

Hello and Hello!! With over 32 years of experience working with children, I have enjoyed serving as a dedicated nanny, babysitter, as well as a preschool teacher.

While 2-5 year olds have traditionally been my area of specialty, I find I am able to deeply connect with children of all ages.

My approach to childcare is centered around patience and playfulness. I believe in creating a safe and stimulating environment where children can thrive and develop their unique skills, while also practicing boundaries in a safe space. Teaching children how to accomplish tasks on their own is something I deeply enjoy, as it fosters their independence and confidence, and stimulates organic growth.

Being an artist myself, I love engaging children in various arts and crafts activities, fostering their creativity through self-expression. Witnessing their imagination come to life through artistic endeavors is truly a joy.
