A little bit about us

We are looking for an occasional caring and experienced nanny for our daughter, Amelie. She is a sweet and adorable child with special needs, specifically mosaic Down syndrome (on the mildest spectrum). She is a seven-year-old joyful and curious child who thrives in a supportive and patient environment. While she may need some additional guidance with certain tasks, she is highly capable and enjoys engaging activities like reading, arts and crafts, and outdoor play. She doesn’t really speak but knows some sign language. We’re seeking someone who has experience or a willingness to learn about her unique needs and who will foster her growth and independence with kindness and understanding. Let me know if you’d like to add more specific details!
