A little bit about me

I have spent over 30 years working with children as a Montessori educator and nanny, and caring for children has truly been my life’s work. I am naturally calm, steady, and nurturing, and I strive to create an environment where children feel respected, heard, and encouraged to grow into their best selves. I especially enjoy supporting school-age children as they develop independence, confidence, and a strong sense of responsibility — and I firmly believe a good sense of humor is key along the way!

I love being both outdoors and indoors — whether that’s going for walks, reading together, cooking nourishing meals, or helping children discover and pursue their own interests and strengths. I value clear, kind communication and partnering closely with parents to create consistency, trust, and a supportive rhythm at home.
