More About Me

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

When I was a teacher.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy engaging children in creative play, reading, arts and crafts, educational games, and outdoor activities. I believe in learning through play and creating a safe, loving environment where children can grow, explore, and have fun.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of working with children is how they inspire me. Their curiosity, imagination, and energy encourage my own creativity and deepen my love for life. Being with children reminds me to see the world with wonder, joy, and possibility, and I feel honored to support them as they grow.

My experience with special needs children...

As a former teacher, I have meaningful experience working with children who have special needs, including autism, learning disabilities, and challenges with reading and math. I believe every child is unique and wonderfully made, with their own strengths and learning style. I approach each child with patience, empathy, and encouragement, creating a supportive environment where they feel safe, understood, and capable of growth.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I truly enjoy working with all kinds of children—they light up the room and bring such positive energy. Over the years, I’ve made many meaningful memories while working with children, but one that stands out most is writing letters to them. One six-year-old boy wrote a letter back to me, and that simple exchange meant so much because it showed the trust and connection we had built. Those moments are why I love working with children.
