Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love coming up with engaging learning activities and helping toddlers explore numbers, letters, colors, and shapes in a way that feels like play.
Some ways I do this include:
Learning Through Play – While we’re building with blocks or playing with toy cars, I naturally introduce colors, shapes, and numbers by saying things like, "Where is the red block? Can you say red?" or "Let’s count how many cars we have!" and encouraging them to repeat after me.
Reading Together – I love choosing library books that match their interests while also introducing new words, ideas, and concepts.
Themed Weeks for Extra Fun – I love being creative by choosing a fun theme each week, like “Farm Week”, where we practice making animal sounds and make a barnyard.
Engaging Screen Time – If screen time is part of the family’s routine, I make sure it’s intentional. I love using educational shows like Numberblocks.
Creative Crafts & Hands-On Activities – I enjoy planning simple, mess-free crafts.

The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is recognizing just how small a child’s world is between the ages of 1 and 4 — and how much of that world I get to be a part of. In these early years, their village is small, their routines are everything, and the love and care they receive shape how they see and trust the world. To be welcomed into that space is such a gift.
It’s more than just watching over them — it’s forming a bond that becomes a source of comfort, security, and joy as they take in the world around them.
Knowing that my love, patience, and care can make a difference in not just their little hearts but in the whole family’s life is something I never take for granted. To offer parents peace of mind, to be an extension of their love, and to truly bless a home with my presence —there’s nothing more meaningful than that.

I know it can be scary to entrust your child to someone else’s care — they are your whole world! As one of your child’s caregivers, my goal is not only to keep your child safe, healthy, and happy, but to encourage their education, growth, and development. Children learn much more quickly through play than any other method. By using my background in Human Development and my experience in Early Childhood Education, I create engaging educational opportunities through small everyday moments as well as more structured learning activities.

My name is Dinedye Denis. I am currently a professional track and field athlete and also coach soccer for children aged 2-8. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in mathematics and completed a year of my master's in Civil Engineering. Due to my current training schedule and regimen, I am unable to work in my field, but I have always had a passion for working with children. As someone who grew up as a refugee, working with kids brings me immense joy because I get to provide for them what I wished others had provided for me during that time.
