A little bit about me

9+ years as a childcare worker, career nanny embracing all the snuggles, big feelings and stinky diapers. Children have always been at the heart of my world, and I take great pride in creating a safe, happy, and encouraging space where they can thrive.
I believe childhood should be filled with laughter, creativity, and learning, and I love bringing those moments to life—whether that’s turning an ordinary day into a fun adventure, helping little ones reach new milestones, or simply sharing giggles during playtime.
Being a nanny isn’t just a job to me—it’s a passion. I dedicate myself fully to every family I support, making sure each child feels cared for, understood, and excited for each new day. I’m here not only to guide and nurture but also to celebrate each child’s individuality and encourage their confidence along the way.
With a blend of humor, patience, and genuine love for children, I strive to make every day meaningful.
Please feel free to reach out regarding my experience!

A little bit about me

I am very creative, I love being outdoors and thinking outside the box. If the kids I am watching take a nap, I will be spending that time prepping something for them when they wake up, cleaning up after us, all in all I will stay busy. I will always have something planned to help enrich their minds even if the plan is to have a quiet and relaxing day. I am a jack of all trades: I'm an artist, photographer, interior designer, seamstress, coach, chef, etc. My favorite of these trades is being a Nanny.

A little bit about me

I am a retired pediatric RN (my license is still current and valid). I used to work at a children’s hospital (1 year) and for a pediatrician (6 years). I started to nanny in 2014. Every family I have been a nanny for, I started when the child (or twins for one family) were 2-3 months old. All of the families I worked for have been first time parents. I currently work for a family with a 6 year old who is in first grade. . I leave to pick her up daily at 1:15 and work until 7. I also take care of my 5 month old granddaughter Tuesday all day. I could add add a few additional morning hours to this schedule. I have been with this family since the little girl was 3 months old. I have a BA degree.I obtained my RN license in 2008. I have a 28 year old daughter so I am also a mom. I have VAST knowledge and experience with newborns, infants, and preschool age.
