A little bit about me
I'm 25 years old and have a deep passion for both children and animals, particularly cats. I’ve had the privilege of rescuing and fostering over 30 cats, working closely with a local cat café in Upstate New York. My energetic, bubbly personality makes me great at connecting with children, and I thrive in multitasking and managing stressful situations. Currently, I nanny for four very active boys aged 12, 11, 9, and 4, including one with ADHD/ADD and another with high-functioning autism. This experience has strengthened my patience, creativity, and adaptability. I’m excited for the opportunity to bring my skills and positive energy to a new family. I also have a past in Criminal Justice at HVCC and graduated with an associate’s in Massage Therapy at Mildred Elley and recently acquired my Massage Therapy License in the NY.

A little bit about me
I am a career nanny. I believe strongly in Child-led learning environments. I do this by tailoring specific milestones, challenges, and conditions to each child to help development and growth. I have work with infants up to the ages of 13. I bring in a mixture of arts, culture, cooking, problem solving and mechanical activities for each age range. I believe that children learn best when they are encouraged to try things themselves, with the support there when needed. I believe this instills self-confidence, natural boundaries, consequences and the communication skills needed for life, as well as a knowledge that asking for help is okay. I design each activity to stimulate multiple developmental sections at a time. I try to involve children in everyday activities like cooking, to develop early learning of life skills, exploration of new foods, and cultures. I believe that children who are excited, encouraged, and able to self-explore while learning are the children who flourish later.
