More About Me

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

I’ve been an aunt since 8 years old . So I’ve been caring my family ranging from nieces and nephews to cousins. I as well have a 17 month old . So I know what all comes with these tiny little humans !

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Activities like arts and crafts allow kids to express creativity and improve fine motor skills, while outdoor games such as tag or scavenger hunts encourage physical activity and teamwork. Reading books together helps enhance their language and imagination, and simple science experiments can spark curiosity and critical thinking. Cooking easy recipes, playing board games, or building with blocks also provide opportunities for learning and laughter, making every moment both meaningful and enjoyable.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is building a trusting, supportive relationship with both the children and their family. This means creating a safe, nurturing environment where the children feel loved, understood, and encouraged to grow. It also involves being dependable, consistent, and communicative—someone the parents can count on and the children feel secure with. Beyond daily tasks, a nanny plays a key role in a child’s emotional, social, and developmental journey, so patience, empathy, and genuine care are essential every single day.

My experience with special needs children...

Certainly! Here’s a paragraph that explains a positive experience with special needs children:

Working with special needs children has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. One moment that stands out was helping a non-verbal child communicate using picture cards. At first, it was challenging, but over time, I saw the child light up with pride as they successfully expressed their wants and feelings. That breakthrough reminded me how important patience, consistency, and empathy are. Every small milestone—whether it was making eye contact, joining a group activity, or sharing a smile—felt like a major victory. It taught me not only to appreciate different ways of learning and expressing but also the power of genuine connection and unconditional support. I as well have a cousin in the special need spectrum .

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny was when I helped the kids put on a surprise “restaurant night” for their parents. We spent the afternoon creating menus, decorating the dining room with handmade signs and flowers from the yard, and practicing how to “take orders.” The children were so excited and took their roles seriously—one was the chef, another the server, and even the youngest helped by folding napkins. When the parents came home, they were touched and amused, and the kids were beaming with pride. It was a simple activity, but it turned into a memory filled with laughter, teamwork, and creativity. Moments like that remind me why I love working with children.
