A little bit about me

Nurturing children and supporting their growth is my passion. For the past 12 years, I have provided dedicated care for children ages 0-11 in both classroom and private home settings. I am a trained Waldorf teacher and deeply value alternative holistic education.
I bring extensive experience, including serving as an Early Childhood Director, and I hold First Aid and CPR certifications. I am a patient, warm, and dependable caregiver who loves spending time outside with the children! Play is the true work of childhood and I enjoy bringing circles, songs, stories, creative work and nature exploration into daily rhythms.
I am happy to support families with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, creative activities, and swimming supervision. My two young children may need to be present during care at times. I can offer a nanny share (up to three children) in my home or provide care in yours. I come with excellent references and look forward to connecting with your family.
