More About Me

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

Hi! My name is Kira, and I’m a reliable, compassionate caregiver with hands-on experience supporting children of different ages and needs. I’m a former daycare teacher and currently work as a behavioral technician, where I support children—many with autism or developmental differences—using patience, structure, and positive reinforcement.

I’m especially skilled at creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment while maintaining routines, helping with emotional regulation, and encouraging independence. I understand how important trust and communication are for families, and I always strive to partner closely with parents to support their child’s unique needs and personality.

I’m comfortable with:
• Infants, toddlers, and school-aged children
• Children with special needs
• Meal prep and light housekeeping related to childcare
• Play-based learning, arts & crafts, and outdoor activities
• Maintaining routines, schedules, and bedtime/nap times

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love engaging children in a variety of fun and educational activities. I enjoy creating arts and crafts projects to foster creativity and fine motor skills. Outdoor adventures such as exploring parks, playing sports, and organizing nature walks help keep kids active and connected to nature. I also cherish story time, reading books aloud to encourage a love for reading and enhance language skills. Cooking together, involving children in simple meal preparations and baking activities, teaches basic cooking skills and promotes healthy eating habits. I delight in music and dance sessions, singing songs, playing musical instruments, and dancing to develop rhythm and coordination. Conducting safe, fun science experiments sparks curiosity and teaches basic scientific concepts. I also assist with homework to promote effective study habits, and I organize imaginative play, such as dress-up games and building forts, to encourage imagination and creativity.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The best thing about being a nanny is the joy and fulfillment that comes from making a positive impact on a child's life. Watching them grow, learn, and achieve new milestones is incredibly rewarding. I cherish the special bonds I form with each child and their family, becoming a trusted and integral part of their lives.

My experience with special needs children...

I’ve worked closely with children with special needs, including autism, providing consistent, compassionate support with routines, behavior guidance, and emotional regulation.
