A little bit about me

I am a bit older than the average bear—I mean Nanny!—with many different child-focused experiences. When my own children were small, I had an in-home daycare and was very involved in a babysitting co-op. I ran an elementary school learning lab, and have cared for infants and toddlers through Sitter Scout in Boulder and Denver CO.
Since moving to Kansas, I have worked for two wonderful families: 1. a family with toddler twins; an experience has been so wonderful, but the children have a new schedule and no longer need me.
2. Prior to that I was with a Lawrence family for 2 years until the youngest entered full time preschool. I would go so far as to say it was the best job of my lifetime!

I remain close to both those families, and have loved the experience of being a steady presence in their hectic, challenging lives, at an important time in the children's development stages.
I have a long professional career also.
Let me know how I can help your young family!

More About Me

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

I had my own in-home day care, and was involved in a babysitting co op for several years. I volunteered in the church nursery. I also developed, managed and taught an elementary science program, working with 4th and 5th graders.
More recently:
1 year with Sitter Scout, a backup care agency serving companies like Google and Lockheed Martin.
3 years here in Lawrence working with 2 families. Those were long term engagements, until the youngest children in each case were ready to move into preschool. I still love those kids and my families I worked with.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Art, games, cooking, nature walks, reading, etc.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important thing I bring to work is providing a safety while in my care. Being in tune with the needs of each child is important to provide excellent care, and I am naturally attuned to what is needed in each moment. Bringing age and developmentally appropriate approaches is key, so that the Nanny contributes to the child's development, growth and early positive experience.

My experience with special needs children...

I helped friends care for their special needs son when there was a need.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Too many to name, but dance parties are a favorite, for sure.

Hi! I’m an experienced, dependable, and caring childcare provider who genuinely loves helping kids learn, grow, and have fun. I have four years of experience as an elementary special education paraprofessional where I received the Kansas Outstanding Educator award as well as Kansas Educator of the Year nominee. I spent three years working with the Boys & Girls Club before- and after-school program; I often served as a private nanny for those families if care was needed outside of school hours or on weekends.

My goal is to make every child feel safe, supported, and valued while giving parents peace of mind.
