A little bit about me

Hiya, I'm Faith :) I have been working with kids for 3+ years now and have been very involved in my sister's life (she's 9). I have been working at a Montessori center in the 1-2 room for around 7 months but missed the beauty of one-on-one care.

"Faith worked with us as additional help for a few months as we ended up having a newborn with special needs. She was so beyond understanding and helpful with both of our boys. She did potty training and care of our 2 year old on top of the care she was providing for our newest. You can tell that she genuinely loves every second that she’s working. She’s a great problem solver who’s adaptive and just overall a sweetheart. We hope the best for her and her future endeavors."

A little bit about me

I’m a very patient and neuro-affirming childcare professional with over six years of professional childcare experience, including five years of professional experience working with special needs children in behavioral therapy and/ or habilitation. I have one year of nannying experience with a one-year-old and, as the eldest daughter of four—two siblings of which are autistic— I have about ten years of babysitting experience from my youth as well. I have an active RBT certification, CPR/ First Aid/ AED and epilepsy certifications, and a Level 1 Fingerprint Clearance Card. Incorporating the arts into play and prioritizing autonomy , dignity, and learning are of utmost importance to me in my work, and childcare is my passion!

"I was a new hire when I was paired with Nytza working with toddlers. She was very welcoming and was eager to show me the ropes. She positively engaged with the children while maintaining strong relationships with their families. Nytza was always willing to take on new challenges and collaborate with others to provide the best care. Her patience and loyalty is commendable."

I'm here to help your family during this incredibly chaotic time, from children being isolated from their friends, to parents stuck working from home, a little extra care is exactly what's needed to ease your stress. I'm CPR/First aid certified as well as having extensive experience taking care of children.

I will find new creative ways to entertain your kids, making crafts, baking, learning about new cultures, and even a little educational field trip (with permission). I look forward to meeting your family and making plans to keep your kids safe, as well as keeping them busy, during these times.
