I can also assist with homework, light housekeeping related to the children, and I’m very pet-friendly and happy to help care for family pets as needed.

More About Me

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

I have over 3 years of experience working in a daycare as well as babysitting children of various ages. My experience includes supervising play, supporting routines, assisting with meals, homework help, and providing safe, reliable care in both group and one-on-one settings.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy engaging children in a variety of fun and age-appropriate activities, including arts and crafts, reading, imaginative play, and educational games that support learning and creativity. I also love playing board games and card games together, baking a sweet treat, and playing age-appropriate video games in a balanced and supervised way. I enjoy outdoor play such as walks and playground time when weather allows, and I’m happy to help with homework, puzzles, and maintaining daily routines. My goal is always to keep children safe, engaged, and having fun while learning and growing.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny to me is keeping children safe, happy, and supported while helping them grow and learn. I strive to form a genuine connection with every child and treat them with the same care, respect, and love as if they were my own. Building trust, understanding their individual needs, and creating a positive, nurturing environment are at the heart of everything I do.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience supporting children with special needs and have always felt a natural gift for connecting with them. For example, when I was younger, I helped a non-verbal child practice writing letters on a drawing pad, something he had never done before. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy finding creative and supportive ways to help every child learn, grow, and gain confidence.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moments caring for children are when they greet me with hugs when I arrive, want to sit in my lap, or ask for me when I’m not there. I also love hearing a child say my name for the first time, especially since it can be tricky to pronounce — it’s such a special reminder that they feel comfortable and connected with me. These little moments make caring for children so rewarding and remind me why I love spending time with them.
