A little bit about me

I am a dedicated and experienced in childcare with a passion for nurturing and engaging environment for children. With four years as a teacher assistant at Williamsburg Montessori School and one year of camp counseling and babysitting experience, I have developed a strong foundation in child development and care. I am able to create a fun and safe environment balancing being firm yet silly and kind. My certifications include First Aid, CPR, Virginia Training for Childcare Staff, and Virginia Annual Health and Safety Training.
Working with children brings out my own inner child and gives me a sense of purpose. I firmly believe in the potential of every child and approach challenges with a problem-solving mindset, seeking to understand the root causes of behavioral difficulties to provide effective support. My goal is to help each child thrive and develop into their best selves. I am confident in my ability to create positive and impactful experiences for the children in my care.

More About Me

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

As a teacher assistant at Williamsburg Montessori School.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Indoors I love doing puzzles, art, such as painting, drawing, and crafting, building, karaoke, make believe, hide and seek, and storybook performing.
Outdoors I love building an obstacle course, playing make believe, hide and seek, tag, bubbles, chalk art, ball games, nature exploration, scavenger hunt, and anything that the child might come up with, within limits.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny to me is making sure that I make a positive impact on the children. Every single child I ever cared for I loved with my whole heart and I want to make sure I’m there for them the way they need me to be.

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with level 3 autism where I could only communicate with my client through ASL and a speaking device, I had to aid with toileting, meal prep, take them on outings, drive them to their appointments, aid in communication, lessons, and fun activities.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment is when I ran into a kid I used to care for when they were 4 and 5 in public and they were 13 yet still remembered me, called out my name, and ran to hug me, nearly knocking me down.
