A little bit about me

Hi! I'm the oldest of 6, with the youngest being 7, so I've had my fair share of diapers, tantrums, bandaids, and sass. I started babysitting in middle school and later became CPR and first-aid certified*. I have had experience in overnights with infants around 1, potty training stubborn toddlers, and supervising young teens as an adventure camp summer camp counselor. I love pets, the outdoors, and crafts, and I am happy to help with housekeeping, driving, errands, and swimming supervision as needed.


*Full transparency: I do need to renew my CPR & First Aid certifications. Though, I am confident in my ability to administer any needed aid and will be renewing these certifications soon.

More About Me

Camp counselor
Sunday school instructor
Overnight nanny

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Crafts, parks, the zoo, sports, reading, music, and playing with toys.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Bring open minded to what the family and each child needs in order to feel safe and trust me.

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with children who are on the autism spectrum and who have mild behavioral or emotional issues or obstacles. I understand that each child has different needs and should be treated as such, with an open mind.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One toddler who I was babysitting for a couple of summers ago had never played in the snow. Seeing him hold a snowball I made for him and the huge smile he had made my day. Sharing little "first-times" with these kids and sharing with their parents is one of my favorite parts of this job.
