A little bit about me

I was a stay-at-home mom for many years before returning to school to study medical billing and coding. But I quickly realized I love working with children and people far too much to spend all day behind a desk. I became a substitute teacher so I could be at school with my daughter and her friends, and because pre-K is one of my favorite classes to teach. I’m currently a caregiver and am CPR- and First Aid-certified. My home is a place where many children who aren’t mine feel cared for like family—I treat each one as if they were my own. Children are among the most precious gifts we have, and I promise to care for yours with the same love and attention I give my daughter. I know how hard it is to leave your children and go to work all day, but it makes all the difference to know they’re safe, happy, and loved at home.

More About Me

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

Substitute Teacher at Lakewood Elementary in Buchanan, TN all different ages some with special needs.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy spending time with children, including activities that can sometimes be challenging. Having a house full of teenagers has given me a new perspective, but I would not trade the experience for anything. I cherish the memories we make each day, from routine chores such as cleaning to visits to haunted houses, bike rides, trips to parks, and museum outings.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Is making sure the child is safe and cared for. That you follow the parenting plan set out by the parents or signed in a nanny contract.

My experience with special needs children...

Worked with a few while a substitute teacher.

The most important part about being a nanny...

There’s nothing more precious than holding a sweet little baby as they sleep. I love those late-night moments when the baby has had a bath, is in a fresh diaper, has just been fed, and has drifted off to sleep—making the cutest little sleepy sounds in their cozy jammies, snuggled up with a favorite binkie, blanket, or toy. Every child is different, but those cuddles are always just as special.
