A little bit about me

Hi! I am a grandmotherly type caregiver, who believes in lovingly nurturing little ones while providing guidance and boundaries. I encourage lots of exploration and curiosity. I am a mental health therapist by profession and training, which had provided an education in childhood development.

In case you are now asking yourself why this therapist is wanting to be a nanny, the answer to that is easy. I still work as a therapist part time, but to be honest, I am burnt out in the profession and am seeking more balance in my life by turning to my other love, children. I set my own hours for my clinical practice which allows me to be flexible for the family for whom I would be providing care.

I worked in daycare settings and was a nanny to a family when I was in my 20’s. More recently, I cared for a sweet baby girl for a family in Hollywood, CA. I would love to talk to you to see if I might be a good fit in helping you care for your growing family.
