A little bit about me

I’m from South Alabama and have a big heart with plans to relocate to New York City! I bring over six years of babysitting experience, two summers of teaching in daycare and summer programs, and nearly four years working as a Registered Behavior Technician, providing hands-on support to children with autism, learning differences, and physical disabilities. I’m patient, dependable, and deeply passionate about helping children grow with confidence, creativity, and compassion. As a Theatre major, I bring energy and imagination into any room I walk into. I value structure and warmth equally, and I strive to create a safe, joyful environment where every child feels seen, supported, and celebrated.

A little bit about me

I'm a teacher and nanny with 10 years of experience, and I hold a Master's in Early Childhood Special Ed. I'm also trained as a birth/postpartum doula.

I've taught in Reggio and Montessori schools and see children as capable, curious individuals. Much of my background is as a lead classroom teacher, and I've also worked as a nanny in share and individual family settings. From 2020 to 2022 I nannied full-time, then returned to teaching before transitioning back into full-time nannying in 2023.

My experience spans infants through school-aged children; I've provided infant care and have extensive experience with toddlers and older kids. I love weaving my teaching background into caregiving: supporting social-emotional growth, encouraging independence, and creating engaging play-based learning opportunities.

I'm reliable, patient, and empathetic. I value building trusting relationships with children and parents and approach every situation with warmth, consistency, and genuine care.

A little bit about me

Hi there!
My name is Eve. I’m a pre-medical student who enjoys hobbies like cooking and making short films with my friends. I have two German shepherds and I love all animals. I want to work with children while I’m in school because they know how to have fun! I have worked with kids 3 - 10 years old as a camp counselor and a daycare assistant, and I have worked with kids in clinical settings (I.e PT and behavioral therapy). I am CPR certified and I am also a licensed EMT, so I understand how to handle emergencies (god forbid). I’d love to learn more about your needs and how I can help your family!
