A little bit about me

I have been married to the love of my life for four years and am blessed to be a mom of three, a bonus mom of three, and an Oma to three wonderful grandchildren. After a 30-year hiatus, I returned to college to pursue my dream of furthering my education. Working with children, especially young learners, is something I truly enjoy. I love teaching American Sign Language and seeing the little moments when a child learns something new, becomes more confident, and feels proud of what they can do. In my free time, I enjoy reading, quilting, spending time with family, visiting the beach, and collecting sea glass.

More About Me

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

I have over 15 years of experience working with and caring for children in daycare, preschool, homeschool, church childcare, and school settings. I have cared for children ranging from 6 weeks to 6 years old and also homeschooled my own children through high school graduation. I enjoy creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and feel supported.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy reading with children, doing arts and crafts, exploring sensory activities, encouraging imaginative play, and helping children build early literacy and school readiness skills through fun, hands-on learning experiences.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important is understanding that every child is different. Each child learns and grows at their own pace. I believe in being patient, kind, and encouraging, while giving children lots of praise and love. I want every child to feel safe, happy, confident, and proud of what they can do.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children comes from both personal and professional experiences. As a deaf parent of a deaf autistic son, I have also worked with young deaf children, including some with autism. These experiences have given me a strong understanding of the importance of patience, communication, and supporting each child's unique needs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite childcare moments are seeing children gain confidence and discover what they are capable of. In my home-based daycare, one child learned so much, including American Sign Language, that when she entered preschool, the staff thought she had attended an exclusive school because she was so well prepared. Another child learned ASL and, although she was very shy when she started school, she felt comfortable communicating through signing. I also had a child who had never painted before. With a little encouragement and support, he discovered a love for painting. Moments like these remind me how much children can grow when they are given patience, encouragement, and opportunities to learn.
