More About Me

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

I have over 10 years of experience caring for children in both professional and ministry settings. My background includes working as a preschool teacher, instructional assistant in special education, and Children’s Director, as well as serving in the Garden Grove Unified and Anaheim Union High School Districts. These roles have given me the privilege of supporting children of all ages and abilities, including those with mild to severe special needs. Caring for children is truly my passion, and I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where every child can thrive.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy planning fun and engaging indoor and outdoor activities for children. Indoors, I like to do arts and crafts, reading, educational games, baking, and imaginative play. Outdoors, I enjoy organizing nature walks, trips to the park, bike rides, sports, and creative activities like scavenger hunts or sidewalk chalk. I focus on balancing learning, creativity, and play in a safe and nurturing environment.

The most important part about being a nanny...

For me, being a nanny is about more than just caring for children — it’s about building trust, providing consistency, and creating a safe and loving environment where kids can grow and thrive. I believe patience, creativity, and compassion are essential, and I treat every child as if they were my own. Supporting families while making a positive difference in a child’s life is the most rewarding part of what I do.

My experience with special needs children...

I have experience working with children with a wide range of special needs, from mild to moderate to more significant disabilities. My responsibilities have included assisting with daily living skills such as diapering, feeding, and mobility support, as well as providing individualized attention to help each child feel safe, cared for, and included. I truly love this work and am passionate about creating a supportive, patient, and joyful environment where every child can thrive.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of the most memorable moments I’ve had as a nanny was when a nonverbal child I cared for surprised me by saying my name for the very first time. It was such a small word, but such a huge milestone — a reminder of how meaningful patience, love, and consistency are in a child’s life.
