A little bit about me

I am an Arizona State University graduate whose passion for childcare grew through my experience as a "live-in nanny" for 2 girls in Japan. Watching them grow from infancy into curious, confident children showed me how deeply high-quality care shapes a child.

Aside from my major, I found a true passion for childcare by diving into Family & Human Development courses!

Courses Taken:
-Introduction to Parenting
-Marriage & Family Relationships
-Personal Growth & Human Relationships
-Family & Ethnic Cultural Diversity
-Statistics for Social Workers.

I believe children thrive when they feel safe and are encouraged to explore their emotions! My caregiving style is rooted in my Christian faith; I respect all cultures & faiths. I practice & model unconditional love, patience, understanding, consistency, dependability, and creativity.

Fun Facts:
-I'm 27
-I love encouraging children to grow into their unique selves
-I love the outdoors!
-I value family & friends deeply
-I love animals

More About Me

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

Full-Time Live-In Nanny | Yokohama, Japan

Summer 2016 & Summer 2019 (3 months at a time)

Provided full-time live-in childcare support for my cousin’s two daughters (a 5-month-old daughter and a 4-year-old daughter).

Caregiving responsibilities included assisting with morning and bedtime routines, preparing meals and snacks, diaper changes, infant feeding, school drop-off preparation, school drop-offs & pickup, homework assistance, after-school care, educational play, outdoor activities, and maintaining a clean and organized home environment. I also assisted with laundry, housekeeping, cooking, and family errands.

This experience strengthened my ability to create a nurturing, structured, and dependable environment while supporting children’s emotional, developmental, and daily needs.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Crafting, reading, building puzzles, teaching them how to "cook" (simple things), teaching children about plants and animals, staying active outside, going on walks, exploring the home garden, singing, children's museums, farmer's markets, science experiments and discovering a child's natural talents or gifts.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment where children feel secure, valued, and encouraged to be themselves. I believe children learn from their environment, peers, and the adults in their lives, which is why I strive to be a positive, dependable role model.

I enjoy spending high- quality time with children and finding teachable moments throughout the day. Whether we’re reading books, cooking, exploring a park, visiting a farmers market, creating crafts, or simply talking about the world around us, I believe small everyday moments can have a lasting impact on a child’s confidence, curiosity, and character.

My goal is to help children grow into kind, capable, and confident individuals while supporting their unique personalities and developmental needs. While childcare is always my primary focus, I'm always happy to assist with meal preparation, laundry, housekeeping, and errands to help families maintain a healthy home!

My experience with special needs children...

Minimum but happy to learn!

The most important part about being a nanny...

As a live-in nanny, my favorite moment was setting up a girly picnic for my cousin's girls in their garden. It was so fun and meaningful to break up our usual school & home routine and create a warm and memorable experience for them. It was rewarding to see the joy on their faces, spend high-quality time together, and to create a lasting memory.
