A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Faith, and I’m a caring, dependable nanny who truly enjoys working with children. I have experience caring for young kids and love creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they can learn and grow. I enjoy planning engaging activities like reading, spending time outdoors, arts and crafts, music, and creative play to help children stay curious and active.

I value patience, communication, and building trusting relationships with both children and parents. My long-term goal is to earn a PhD in forensic psychology, so education and learning are very important to me, and I enjoy encouraging curiosity and problem-solving in everyday moments.

I come from a close-knit family originally from Bolt, West Virginia, where my family had a farm. Growing up with those roots taught me responsibility, kindness, and the importance of caring for others—values I bring into my childcare every day.
