A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Monica — a fun and loving nanny with over four years of experience caring for infants and toddlers. I’ve also been a foster parent, which taught me a lot about patience, empathy, and creating a safe, nurturing space for kids to thrive.

I studied Human Services and used to work as an academic advisor and middle school instructor, so helping children learn and grow comes naturally to me. I love keeping things playful, positive, and full of laughter while making sure each day feels special for the little ones I care for.

A little bit about me

I have been caring for children since I was 13, starting with babysitting and later working as a seasonal nanny taking care of kids ages 3mo to 10 years old. Most recently, I’ve been a nanny for my young nephew (1yr), which has deepened my love for helping kids learn and grow. I’m currently back in school to study nursing, where I’m gaining even more knowledge about care and development. I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active with the children I care for, whether that means playing games, exploring nature, or trying new activities. I’m always eager to learn new skills and approaches so I can be the best caregiver possible.
