More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

My experience with kids are working at an after school program for elementary students. Helping them with homework, math skills, reading and writing skills.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

One of my favorite parts of working with kids is getting to be creative and active with them! I really enjoy doing hands-on activities like arts and crafts, baking simple recipes together, playing make-believe, and exploring outside when the weather allows — whether it’s a nature walk, playground time, or a little scavenger hunt.

I also love reading stories, playing games that spark their imagination or help with learning (like puzzles or counting games), and finding fun ways to make everyday routines feel special. I always try to tailor activities to each child’s age, personality, and interests — making sure they’re having fun while learning and growing at the same time.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part about being a nanny is building a genuine, trusting relationship with the child and their family. I believe kids thrive when they feel safe, loved, and understood — so creating that kind of environment is always my top priority.

Being a nanny isn’t just about supervision — it’s about showing up with patience, empathy, and consistency every single day. It’s about being a positive role model, someone a child can look up to and feel comfortable with, while also supporting the family’s values and routines.

I feel truly honored to play a part in a child’s early experiences and development, and I take that responsibility to heart.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience working with children who have special needs, and it’s something I feel truly passionate about. I understand that every child is unique and may need different kinds of support — whether it’s with communication, mobility, sensory processing, or emotional regulation.

I’ve worked with children with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, developmental delays. I always take a patient, compassionate, and individualized approach. I focus on creating a calm, consistent environment and using clear communication and routines to help the child feel safe, supported, and understood.

I’m also a big believer in celebrating small victories, encouraging independence, and working closely with families to make sure we’re all on the same page in terms of care, routines, and goals.
