More About Me

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

I was a social worker and doula for my main careers, then a caregiver for elders, and now for infants and children. I began as a babysitter with I was 12! I worked at Playful Child Preschool for 2 years prior to the pandemic, and with a variety of children at The Commons. I'm open to a live-in situation for the right family and bring much levity, competence, heart and wisdom to my work. To be with children and to provide home care is a pleasure and a joy! How may I be of service to you and your family? Patience, loving-kindness, integrity, honesty, and authentic positivity are some of my core values. I provide only the best of care and support in the ways you choose to raise your child(ren), given that those ways are loving, attentive and kind. Your family deserves the best!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Engaging in creative play and activities that support the growth and development of your child(ren). For example, simple explorations in nature outside, bringing nature inside, dancing, singing, reading, quiet time, listening, empathizing unconditionally, baking, games, yoga, laughter, tidying up together, playdates, etc. What do you and your child(ren) love doing together? How may I support the passions you share?

The most important part about being a nanny...

~Being patient, loving, unconditionally kind and empathic.
~Respecting how you choose to raise your child and supporting you by emulating that.
~Safety first!
