A little bit about me

I excited to introduce myself and express my interest in supporting your family as a live-out nanny. Caring for children has truly been my life’s work and passion for over 10 years, and I feel incredibly grateful to have supported families with children ranging from newborns to pre-teens throughout my career.

Im flexible, patient, and culturally aware caregiver. Every child is different, and I love getting to know their personalities, interests, and needs so I can support their growth in a way that feels natural and nurturing. Whether it’s soothing a newborn, guiding a toddler through milestones, or helping older children build independence and confidence, I bring calm energy, consistency, and genuine care into the home.

Safety is always my top priority. I hold a current Standard CPR with AED certification, including emergency training, I love planning outdoor time, creative activities, and preparing healthy meals that fuel growing bodies and minds.

Warmly,
Mary Jane McDonald

Manasi G. - Seeking Work in Peterborough

Babysitter Available in Peterborough, ON: Manasi G.

My journey into childcare didn’t begin in a classroom or a formal workplace; it began at home. As the older sibling to two younger siblings , I was introduced to the responsibilities of caregiving from a very young age. Helping raise my siblings gave me an authentic, front-row education in the realities of child development.

Through this personal experience, I learned the nuances of patience, the importance of active listening, and the art of conflict resolution—skills that cannot be fully taught through textbooks alone. I know firsthand how to navigate the chaotic energy of a busy household, how to soothe a frustrated child, and how to turn everyday chores into engaging, cooperative games. This lifelong personal background has given me a natural comfort level around children of all ages and a deep sense of empathy for the diverse needs of families. Let’s connect ❤️
