A little bit about me

Hello! I’m looking for a good fit with a family ideally seeking around twenty hours a week of childcare. My approach to childcare is to prioritize connection, routine, and child-led play and learning.

I began nannying out of a sincere love for babies and children, and the families I work with always become an important and wonderful part of my life. I am screen-free (flip phone for life!), am prepared to conquer bad weather in pursuit of outside time for all ages. I love to read, draw, build, and play pretend. I also particularly enjoy developing language skills.

I’ve been babysitting for six years, and my current seven-year old and I just celebrated our one-year anniversary. I’ve given art lessons, led animal ambassador meet-and-greets for kids, and cleaned homes. I love babies and children of all ages, and am most experienced preschool and elementary school ages. I’m CPR trained, allergen-aware, and have a soft spot for children on the autism spectrum.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Nature walks and arts & crafts are my go-to activities. Children are so naturally curious, I find harnessing that interest in novelty really valuable in entertainment and teaching. These are also activities I find can really help shy or younger kids open up to a new adult.

The most important part about being a nanny...

A nanny needs to be a trusted adult for the family *and* the child. Being genuinely invested in the activities and paying attention is key to actually letting them lead. If I'm being sincere and having fun, we're able to build a sincere and fun relationship. I’m sure you could tell me better than I could tell you – even infants will show off their little personalities if you’re paying attention. It’s so special!

My experience with special needs children...

I have worked with children on the autism spectrum and children will allergies!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The best question I've ever been asked: When a dragonfly eats something, do you see the lump go down its body, like a snake?
Something about the logic there just makes me laugh. I think about it whenever I see a dragonfly.
