A little bit about me
Hi! I’m a dedicated, patient, and dependable caregiver seeking a long-term nanny position with a family I can grow alongside. I most recently worked as a teaching assistant in a special education preschool, where I supported children with a wide range of developmental needs in a structured, nurturing environment.
I bring a calm, consistent presence and believe in building strong routines while honoring each child’s individuality. My approach centers on emotional safety, positive reinforcement, and learning through play. I love incorporating creative activities like art, sensory play, music, and outdoor exploration to support development and curiosity.
Reliability and communication are very important to me, especially in a long-term role. I value forming trusting relationships with parents and becoming a steady, supportive part of a child’s life. Families describe me as attentive, compassionate, and someone they can truly count on.

A little bit about me
Hiii! My name is Tasia and I’ve had experience in early childcare since I was a child myself and started off babysitting. Eventually that turned into me becoming a daycare teacher, a preschool teacher, and a summer camp teacher. The youngest I’ve worked with is 1 week and the oldest I’ve worked with is 11 years old. I have worked with all types of kids such as children on the spectrum, behavioral, children with missing limbs and so much more. I have a passion in what I do because I believe I can change the world and make it better for all children which is why I’m currently working on obtaining my degree in early childhood education + special ed with a minor in business so I can one day run my own daycare.

I have 7+ Yrs of experience in the Arts. My Theater and Arts background have aided extremely in creating fun and engaging environments for the children I’ve cared for. It’s allowed me to easily and quickly turn a time that can be difficult for most kids into one that they’re actually excited for!
