A little bit about me

I have been nannying since my senior year of high school and I would say it is my true passion in life. I adore children and the opportunity to become like part of the family, helping shape the next generation is an honor and a privilege that I do not take lightly. I am 100% for gentle parenting and Montessori parenting styles of parenting, I will not work for families that are heavily focused on discipline. I am a painter and a lover of the outdoors and I hope to share both of those joys with your kiddos. I prefer to keep us busy with things outside of screens.

I have seven years of experience with four different families, three of which I am still in contact with and babysit for from time to time. I also have a bachelors degree in communications from the University of Utah. I own my own car and am CPR certified.

A little bit about me

I am a reliable and compassionate university student at the U, currently studying Pre-Nursing, who is seeking a responsible childcare position. My background is rooted in caregiving, both professionally as a Registered Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and personally, having served as the eldest daughter and primary caregiver for my siblings from infancy up to age 13. This gives me over six years of proven experience across all developmental stages both at home and from past clients. Parents can feel secure knowing I am CPR certified (renewed May 2025) and approach all situations with patience and attentiveness. I believe in fostering genuine connections with children and use a calm, understanding approach to conflict resolution, prioritizing listening and problem-solving. For families looking for a multilingual caregiver, I am fluent in Spanish and proficient in American Sign Language (ASL).
