A little bit about me

I’m from California and I’ve worked with children for 11 yrs.

In my youth I worked as a camp counselor. I planned curriculum, led activities, and supervised. I worked as an educator for 7 years, caring for children aged 4 mnths to 11 yrs. I led circle time, taught letters and sounds, read stories, did tummy time, introduced solids, helped with meals, potty trained and supervised.

I have 9 ECE units.

Later I worked as a nanny/In-home educator, facilitating/supervising Montessori/play-based activities, helping with homework and online learning during COVID, and even teaching English to a child of 2 who only spoke Chinese!

I worked as a full time nanny for a baby of 6 months and nanny now for a baby who I’ve cared for since 8 months . I helped with tummy time, nap, solids, crawling, and walking. I also created age appropriate activities in order to develop fine motor, gross motor skills, and so on.

In Australia I cared for a 4 month old, Nannied and worked at a preschool!

I have taken classes in newborn/ infant care and continue to keep myself up to date with newborn information. In addition to my studies, i’ve also received the necessary vaccines to care for babies. I am certified in adult, child and infant CPR which ensures parents the safety of their baby in the event of an emergency.

"We absolutely love Keisha! She is kind, compassionate, and very caring with our now 4 month old daughter. She worked overnights when our baby was in the throes of sleep regression, and spent days with her in the park and at the library. She truly helped me make my transition into motherhood much more smooth. I can’t express enough how much we love her and appreciate all she does for us. Please feel free to contact me for a reference."

A little bit about me

Hello! Working with children is a true passion of mine. I have been teaching dance classes to little girls since college and got involved in gymnastics dance training before I became a fitness instructor for “mommy and me” programs in 2016. I later ran a pre school prep program in West Hartford, Connecticut that ran 2 days a week with 12 children. Just this past year I decided to take the experience of babysitting on the weekends and teaching/ running drop off programs for all ages to start nannying full time ! It’s been such a successful transition and I couldn’t be happier! My dream is to live in NYC and I believe doing what I love in the city I love would be a great opportunity! I am happy in Connecticut, but the thought of moving to New York full time would be priceless. I have worked with several types of families since I started full time but I currently work with 3 families weekly. I can provide all references upon request ! I look forward to hearing from you!
