A little bit about me

I'm a responsible, energetic caregiver with strong childcare and leadership experience. As a Dorm Proctor and Prefect, I was trusted to supervise younger students, keep them safe, and create a positive community.

I’ve also worked as a Camp Counselor and Pool Aid at Children’s Aid, gaining hands-on experience leading activities and communicating with families.

I’m CPR/First Aid certified, highly reliable, and great at staying organized and calm. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and bring a positive, patient attitude to every job. Families can count on me to be engaged, communicative, and committed to creating a fun and safe environment.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, supportive environment where kids feel understood and cared for. When children feel secure, they can explore, learn, and grow with confidence.

My experience with special needs children...

I grew up attending the Buckley School in New York City, later graduated from Trinity-Pawling, and now study at Bucknell University. Having ADHD myself has helped me become especially patient, understanding, and great at connecting with kids who have lots of energy or need a little extra support staying engaged. I know how to turn structure, movement, and creativity into strengths, and I bring that mindset into childcare.
My background in boarding school and now college has made me independent, responsible, and confident in managing routines, communicating clearly, and creating a positive environment. I genuinely enjoy helping kids feel understood, active, and supported, because I know firsthand how much the right guidance can matter.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was helping a child with a lot of energy (just like me growing up!) find a fun routine that actually worked for them. Watching them stay focused, feel proud, and enjoy the activities we created together was incredibly rewarding.
