More About Me

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

I used to work at a daycare and have my CDA (Child Development Associate) credential. I have two years of experience working with preschool-age children, helping them learn through play, creativity, and hands-on activities.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love planning fun themed activities, storytime, and hands-on crafts! Indoors, we might bake together, do art projects, build forts, or read books from the library. Outdoors, I enjoy taking walks, going to the park, blowing bubbles, or setting up scavenger hunts. I always make sure the day feels fun, creative, and full of learning moments!

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is keeping children safe, supported, and cared for while helping them grow and learn. I love being someone they can trust and have fun with, while also encouraging their learning through play and everyday moments.

My experience with special needs children...

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moment was when I realized I had formed a real bond with the kids. One day, they ran up to me with drawings they made that said “We love Ms. Mya,” and it honestly melted my heart. It made me realize how much trust and connection we had built through all the fun activities, storytimes, and silly moments together.

Elizabeth T. - Seeking Work in Apple Valley

Live-In Part-Time Nanny Available in Apple Valley, MN: Elizabeth T.

The sound of children's laughter is music to my heart! And it has frequented my life in many ways. With over 15+ years of childcare experience (from babysitting to short term nannying), four years as a high school teacher (ie: chaos manager), and 2.5 years working with adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, I come with a breadth of experiences and skills. In all of these experiences, I have curated creative environments, whether coming up with science experiments on the fly, going on nature walks, writing stories, performing plays, or having an inflatable dinosaur costume ready at a moment's notice for belly-rolling laughter.
As a highly interpersonal empath, I naturally connect with children and bring a calm presence to the environment.

Currently, I am looking for a part-time morning nanny gig. I currently have a nanny job from 2:30-7:00pm on the weekdays.

I am first aid/CPR certified and have my own vehicle.

Looking forward to working with you!
