A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Asher, I am 27 years old and recently moved back to Grand Rapids to be closer to family after having lived and nannied in New York City for the last 8 years. I have worked with families of varying backgrounds with children of all ages but my specialty is kiddos age 2-6. I also taught preschool for 4 years as well as elementary art for 2 years. My background is heavily creative as well as nature based and I enjoy bringing both those things together in my nanny life to provide kids with an exploratory and well rounded life. I hope I can be a great fit for your family!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy helping kids tap into their creativity in a process based way that will help them to learn about themselves and build important social skills. I believe the arts are so important at any age and my nanny philosophy reflects that’s. I also have a heavy background in outdoor education and believe taking kids on hikes, bike rides, and exploring nature in general is a necessary part of childcare.

The most important part about being a nanny...

is making kids feel safe and loved, making sure they are both physically and emotionally taken care of and exposing them to new experiences and things in the city.
