More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
My experience covers every setting imaginable: babysitting, nannying, private childcare, and household management. I offer flexible availability for full-time, part-time, overnight, weekend, drop-in, and extended care, giving families the peace of mind that their children are in capable and compassionate hands. I first started officially babysitting at 11 years old, and now three decades later at 43, I've spent a large portion of my life caring for children of all ages—from precious newborns to independent young adults.

The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is showing up consistently with patience, reliability, and genuine care, so children feel supported and families feel confident.
My experience with special needs children...
My experience with special needs children is limited and primarily supportive in nature. I have worked alongside children with mild developmental, behavioral, and learning differences, focusing on patience, routine, and emotional support. At this time, my strengths and preference are best aligned with providing care for children who do not require specialized medical or intensive therapeutic support.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite caregiver moments are watching toddlers work so hard to figure something out, fail a few times, and then suddenly succeed. The pride and confidence that wash over them in that moment never gets old. I love being part of their learning, teaching them new skills, and starting their day with smiles and excitement when they see me at morning drop-offs.
