A little bit about me

Hello! I'm Mia, I am 23 and recently graduated with a BFA in visual media arts. I grew up in southern California but my family is originally from Serbia.

More About Me

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

I worked as a pre-K and Kindergarten teacher at an after school child development center for a year. Often times I would help out with the 1st-6th grade rooms as well. during my time at the job.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love engaging in activities such as painting, drawing, outdoor sports, crafting, doing legos, going to museums, watching films, dancing, interactive group games, board games, exploring parks, learning about plants and animals.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters to me most about being a nanny is creating a safe and relaxing space for kids to explore new activities. I love embarking on new adventures with the children I nanny and watching them be unafraid to try something new.

My experience with special needs children...

The extent of my experience working with special needs children comes from my time working at a daycare where I worked closely with children with autism on a daily basis.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment is during my time as a Kindergarten teacher when I started teaching a couple of my students to play chess and over the course of a few months they improved so much that they started to beat me at the game. It was so rewarding to see their enthusiasm about chess and sharing their new skill with their friends at school.
