A little bit about me

I just moved here from Tennessee and I’m missing caring for kids! I’ve been out of the nannying game for a bit but I had a few families I babysat for in TN and about 10 years of experience. My number one priority is giving you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing that I will care for your kids like I would my own. Some activities I love to engage in with kids: playing outside, doing outings to the zoo or children’s museum, and preparing meals feels like an easy multitask. I spend time intentionally with children because I really enjoy it. Some of my hobbies include: art, cooking, and coffee. Let’s chat about what your needs are and if we’d be a good fit for each other!

A little bit about me

I am passionate about providing caring and nurturing spaces in all areas of my life; creating that for children is very important to me because children carry the future. I believe each child deserves gentle and authentic love and I believe the environments they grow up in help to determine the future they create.
I grew up in a very large family - I am the fourth of eight children - and I know that this has created in me a special love for kids. I have always had a strong nurturing instinct and have greatly enjoyed putting this into action with the families I have worked for in the past. I am working towards my certification as a postpartum doula and am skilled in newborn/infant care as well as toddler age care.
I majored in English in college and I love to both read and write! I love to bake, I love coffee, and I love decorating and creating aesthetically pleasing and cozy spaces.
