The most important part about being a nanny...
Patience – kids need time, space, and gentle guidance.
• Safety – always making sure children are protected and cared for.
• Reliability – families count on you to be consistent and dependable.
• Engagement – not just “watching,” but playing, teaching, and interacting.
• Flexibility – rolling with the unexpected (because kids are unpredictable!).
• Communication – keeping parents updated and working as a team.
• Nurturing – showing genuine care, compassion, and kindness.

My experience with special needs children...
I’ve also had the rewarding experience of working with autistic children, which taught me how much patience, understanding, and creativity go into supporting kids with unique needs. I value creating safe, fun, and engaging environments where children feel cared for, and I bring that same nurturing energy into every family I support.

Hey there 👋 My name is Rianna! 🤗
I worked the last 15 years in the healthcare field but have decided that it is time to start a new chapter and new adventure in life starting with a career change! I did babysitting for 5 years when I was in my teens and had also been a live in caregiver for my three nephews when they were younger. I always did genuinely enjoy it and feel I have a huge passion for working with children so I feel a nanny role would be a great fit! I'm a very reliable, caring and patient individual and believe in the importance of creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can learn, grow, and also feel supported. I'm dependable, trustworthy, and understand the importance of building trust with both children and their families. Whether it's helping with daily routines, planning engaging activities, or assisting with homework, I'm committed to providing excellent care and giving parents a much needed peace of mind that their children are in good hands!
