A little bit about me

As a caregiver, I bring endless enthusiasm for creativity, curiosity, and growth. My experience in daycare, museum education, and with families provides me with skills and education needed to adapt care for children of any ability, race, or background. With attention to detail and a love of organization, I can offer transformative experience for children and families in any part of the world. I want to be the best support for parents and their kids’ biggest cheerleader. I have a lot of love to give and I am so excited to share it with future families I work with!

More About Me

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

I was a lead toddler teacher for several years in a daycare! Here, I learned the fundamentals of childcare, including milestone recognition and development, baby sign language, and routine transitions.

I was recruited as a nanny for a family with 3 children. One child had ADHD and one had spina bifida, which taught me how to adapt activities and routines to the needs of each child. I stayed with the family for about 5 years, increasing my knowledge of medical care, aging up activities, and managing multiple routines.

While in school, I volunteered as a teacher’s aid in a kindergarten classroom. I helped kids practice writing, vocabulary, and teamwork throughout the school year.

I also interned at a large-scale children’s museum. My job was to design themed, hands-on learning experiences for summer camps. I taught kids from kindergarten through 6th grade.

Recently, I've been helping new mothers with household maintenance and newborn care during postpartum!

I also worked with a child with spina bifida for several years. Additional training I gained working with this child include:

- muscle development activities as suggested by physical therapist
