More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I have 6 years of childcare experience caring for children ranging from infants to young adults (up to age 21). My experience includes babysitting, long-term nannying, and supporting families with multiple children. I’ve helped with daily routines such as feeding, diapering, bedtime, transportation, and homework assistance, as well as planning engaging, age-appropriate activities. I also have experience maintaining household structure including light housekeeping related to the children, meal prep, and ensuring a safe and positive environment.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I enjoy planning fun, age-appropriate activities that help children learn, stay active, and express creativity. This includes arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, walks to the park, games, and imaginative play. I also enjoy helping with educational activities like homework support, early learning exercises, and developmental play for younger children. I like balancing structured activities with free play so kids can have fun while also feeling supported and engaged.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is providing a safe, dependable, and nurturing environment where children feel secure and supported. It’s about being consistent with routines, building trust with both the children and parents, and really paying attention to each child’s individual needs. I also believe strong communication, patience, and reliability are key to helping children grow and feel comfortable while giving parents peace of mind.
My experience with special needs children...
I have experience working with children who have a variety of needs, including providing patience, structure, and individualized support to help them feel safe and successful. I understand the importance of consistency, clear communication, and adapting activities to meet each child’s abilities and comfort level. I always approach care with patience, empathy, and flexibility, and I work closely with families to follow routines and any specific instructions provided.
The most important part about being a nanny...
honestly the little everyday ones that don’t seem big at the time but end up meaning the most—like when a child finally trusts me enough to come to me for comfort, when we turn a simple activity into something creative and fun, or when I get to be part of their milestones and watch their confidence grow. I also really love the mix of structure and play—helping kids feel safe, seen, and happy while still learning and exploring their world.
