A little bit about me

Hello!

I’ve been nannying on and off for 5 years now and I’ve decided I’m ready to find another family to be a special part of again. I have most experience with infants and toddlers, but I look forward to learning more about older ages. Families I’ve nannied for have all had multiple children, various ages. I’ve also worked in a childcare center setting.
I have a 2 year old daughter, who has changed my whole outlook on life. I would love to find a family that will accept her as well. Attachment, gentle parenting has become very important to me and I plan to implement it as a nanny. I use conscious discipline daily and find that it’s the most successful tactic for well behaved children. I also take pride in the fact that I use techniques from Reggio Emilia, Montessori, Waldorf, and play based styles of learning.
I look forward to talking with you and learning more about your family!

Thanks so much for your time.
