A little bit about me

Family is something I strongly value. Each and every family that I have worked with has their own style and way(s) of doing things. I am quick to learn how each family operates and handles situations. I bring with me an ability to multitask, a loving, energetic personality and many fun and creative activities. I believe children need to have a bond and the ability to trust people who are involved with their lives. I engage children at every opportunity to learn, laugh and grow with a nurturing demeanor. Working with families who have children has been a passion of mine. I enjoy the fresh out-look children have on day to day life. I have excellent references and recommendations. I enjoy assisting each family I work for with their specific needs. I am responsible, flexible, and timely. Most importantly, I bring high energy, a love for children, and the ability to multitask. Looking forward to learning more about your family!

A little bit about me

I've been a nanny for nearly 11 years working with children of all ages and dispositions. I have helped home-school through 5th grade, and was a temporary substitute preschool teacher in a weekly co-op. Being the oldest of 8 children and working with larger families and a 3-family nanny share throughout the years, I thrive caring for lots of kiddos. I've gained a deep understanding of and empathy for the mindsets of children, and I make it a personal mission to provide each child under my care with warmth and safety while also encouraging independence and inner strength. I believe in nurturing curiosity, creativity, and individuality, and will motivate each child to find new interests for us to dive into together, to explore what excites them and foster a love of learning, and to create a foundation for them to trust in their capabilities throughout their growth. I truly find it a privilege to participate in the lives of children! I’m happy to send my full resume upon request.
