A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Tanzania. I’m an experienced and caring nanny who loves creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for children.
I’ve always enjoyed working with kids because of their curiosity, energy, and unique personalities. I’m patient, responsible, and dependable, and I enjoy engaging children in activities that support their growth; they whether that’s reading, arts and crafts, outdoor play, or helping with homework. Families I’ve worked with appreciate that I’m attentive, reliable, and able to keep things running smoothly while still being warm and approachable.

A little bit about me
I was a private nanny and preschool teacher where over several years of experience in caring for children of various ages, I've developed a strong passion for nurturing young minds and fostering their growth. As a preschool teacher, I've honed my skills in planning engaging activities that promote learning through play, while ensuring a safe and healthy environment for all children. Throughout my journey, I've demonstrated patience, understanding, and effective communication with children, parents, and colleagues. I've successfully managed varied needs and schedules, prioritizing one-on-one time with each child while promoting bilingualism and cognitive development. My adaptability, organizational skills, and ability to multitask have enabled me to efficiently manage household tasks while providing quality care. I'm committed to creating a nurturing environment that encourages children to thrive and reach their full potential.

I have four years of experience as an Assistant Preschool teacher and over five years of experience as a babysitter, where I cared for children from infants to fourteen years old. During my time as an Assistant Teacher, I earned my DCF hours meaning I will be able to provide age and developmentally-appropriate learning activities for children in my care. I am excited to get to know more families in the area and hopefully find a good fit!
