More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

For multiple families, working in early childhood education settings, and supporting children with special needs in both structured and informal environments. In these roles, I assisted with daily routines, meal prep, educational activities, and emotional support—always prioritizing safety, patience, and a nurturing approach.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Arts and crafts, reading storybooks, outdoor play, educational games, and sensory activities. I love finding creative ways to make learning fun and engaging, whether it’s helping with homework, building with blocks, or organizing themed play days. Most of all, I enjoy activities that spark imagination and encourage positive social and emotional development.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and consistent environment where children feel supported, heard, and encouraged to grow. It’s about building trust not just with the children, but with the family while being dependable, patient, and adaptable to each child’s unique needs. A great nanny goes beyond basic care and becomes a positive role model, mentor, and source of comfort in a child’s daily life.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children has been incredibly meaningful and has taught me the importance of patience, empathy, and consistency. I’ve worked closely with children who required additional support in areas such as communication, motor skills, and emotional regulation. In these roles, I provided one-on-one care, followed personalized routines, and used creative approaches to help them feel safe, understood, and engaged. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to each child’s individual needs while creating a positive and supportive environment for their growth.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was when one of the children I cared for, who was usually very shy and quiet, surprised me by reading an entire book out loud with confidence. We had been working on reading together for weeks, and seeing that progress and the proud smile on their face was such a special moment. It reminded me how much impact patience, encouragement, and consistent support can have on a child’s growth and self-esteem.
