A little bit about me

I view children as independent, autonomous little humans, and strive to foster consent-based care and child-centered learning and play. My approach to childcare is Montessori-inspired, as I have been an administrator and substitute at a Montessori school for the past two years. I am passionate about racial & social justice, and have experience working with children (and parents!) of diverse identities, as well as children who have learning & emotional support needs.

Outside of nannying, I hope to become a K-8 ESL teacher in the next few years. I live in Greenfield with my partner and our two cats, Lettuce and Zuma! I love cooking, gardening, reading, listening to records, and volunteering for a local books-to-prisoners organization.

I am happy to provide references upon request. I hope to connect with you to learn more about your kiddo(s)!

A little bit about me

Hi! I'm looking to work with a loving and welcoming family of any number of kids. I've worked with families with up to 4 children at a time, ranging from 2 months old to 13 years. I have experience working with individuals with special needs, and value giving children autonomy to make their own choices as much as possible. I look forward to talking more!
An important piece of who I am that I want to be forward about is the fact that I am transgender, I use he/him pronouns now. while working with children in the past, questions have come up. I will always tell them the truth about who I am and what values accompany my identity.

A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Lindsey, I am a 38 mother of one amazing 4 year old girl. I have been in the corporate world the last 15 years, and feeling the calling to go back to my roots and care for children again! Prior to the corporate world, I started my career with children at age 15, working as an after school child care staff, and summer camp counselor for the YMCA, ages 4-12. Through out college, I nannied for 3 different families with children aging from 3 months to 9 years, with two of the families having 2 children. I happily do light house keeping, meal preparations, crafts, outside adventures and more :) Being a mother myself, I understand the importance of providing safe, loving and trusting care for children, while honoring and respecting the rules and foundation of the family set by the parents. Hope to meet with you soon!
