A little bit about me

Days flexible.
I have 23 years of experience working with children between being a mother and watching children through the years plus 7 years at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia as a Respiratory Therapist. I resigned from CHOP in 2021 to pursue my passion of holistic health as a Reiki practitioner/teacher/natural wellness guide (low tox living). I have been a Reiki practitioner for 12 years. I'm a believer in doing all the things you love, and working with children does bring me joy. One of the best parts of my previous job was helping the nurses with feedings, diaper changes, consoling or just keeping the children company when they were alone. I consider myself to be nurturing, compassionate, positive, humorous and upbeat. I live a very healthy lifestyle therefore most comfortable in likeminded households. I like doing outdoor activities and just being in nature, reading, creative play, mind/body practices and more. I'm also an animal lover so I'm open to assisting with pet care.

Having the trust from the family/ child where everyone is comfortable and happy.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The introduction of a new food and experiencing the joy of the child’s excitement of how good the food tasted. The look on the child’s face -
and the body language-dancing and gesturing that they wanted more made me laugh.

Bottle feeding a baby and them looking up at me then placing their one hand on my face gently and smiling. Such a tender moment knowing they felt safe with me.
