More About Me

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

With nearly 6 years of hands-on experience in early childhood care, I’ve had the joy of working with children ages 0–4 in both licensed childcare centers and private family homes. In center-based settings, I’ve supported infants and toddlers through key developmental milestones with age-appropriate activities, nurturing routines, and positive guidance. Most recently, I’ve cared for a little one in a private home since infancy—now a curious, active 2-year-old! This mix of classroom structure and personalized, in-home care has strengthened my ability to adapt to each child’s unique needs while building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and parents

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

My days are filled with outdoor play, nature walks, imaginative play, songs, and activities that encourage independence and social-emotional growth.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is building a strong, trusting connection with each child and their family. It’s about being more than just a caregiver—I strive to be a consistent, loving presence who helps children feel safe, supported, and confident as they grow. Whether it’s through play, comforting them in moments of uncertainty, or cheering on their milestones, I take great pride in being part of their everyday lives and creating a nurturing environment where they can thrive.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments with the two-year-old I care for was when a new visitor came into the home, and he suddenly felt unsure and nervous. Without hesitation, he came straight to me for comfort and reassurance. It was such a meaningful moment because it showed the strong bond of trust we’ve built. Knowing that he felt safe enough to seek me out during a moment of uncertainty reminded me why I love what I do—being that calm, steady presence for little ones as they navigate their big, new world.
