A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Summer. I have over 10 years of experience working with children through long term nannying, kids yoga, and swim instruction. I’m currently finishing my bachelor’s in speech pathology and plan to continue on to my master’s, which influences how I support children’s communication and development.

I’m reliable, organized, and value clear communication and consistency. I’m comfortable with school schedules, errands, meal prep, homework help, and keeping things running smoothly. I bring a calm, warm presence and enjoy building long term relationships with the families I work with.

A little bit about me

My name is Devon Watson! I am 25 years old and working with children has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I have been both a part-time and full-time nanny for the last decade and it is the best job ever. I have taught many children's enrichment programs in the past (dance, gymnastics, sports, mommy and me, family yoga, and various preschool programs) as well as developing my own children's yoga program since I am also a yoga teacher! I love to get outside as much as possible, walks, adventures to the park, and playdates with your little one's friends are my favorite things to do! Home management is also an area I have experience with, everything from housekeeping to organizing to groceries I am happy to support the family and help the house run smoothly.
