A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Lauren, and I absolutely love working with kids. I’ve had the joy of teaching dance to children ages 3 to 11, which helped me build a strong foundation in patience, creativity, and positive communication. I recently earned my bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies, and I’ll be starting a master’s program in Special Education next year.

I’m currently looking for a summer nanny position where I can support a family with care, energy, and kindness. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I genuinely enjoy engaging with kids through play, learning, and movement.
