A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Ryann,
I have experience as a nanny and have worked with several childcare programs, including local summer camps and the Girl Scouts. I’m currently a part-time student (two credits away from BA) looking for full-time nanny work and is available to start ASAP.
I love dogs (and really all animals!), going on walks, and doing arts and crafts. I have the most experience with children ages 3+, but I’m flexible and comfortable with a range of ages.
When working with kids, I focus on three key things:
Kindness first – I aim to build a respectful, safe, and positive relationship with both children and parents so we can focus on what matters most: having fun.
Respect for boundaries – Every child has their own comfort level. I’m here to listen and support their needs, while always prioritizing safety and keeping parents informed.
Kid-led fun – I love engaging kids in activities they enjoy and keeping things active, creative, and fun—not just sitting around the house.

More About Me

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

Relevant experience caring for children includes my time as a nanny, along with working at local summer camps and with the Girl Scouts, where I supported children in fun, structured environments.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love planning fun outings and am very communicative about all activities. I enjoy taking kids to the library, zoo, farmers markets, PARKS, museums, or going berry or apple picking—you name it! I also love getting creative with things like painting, working with clay, making friendship bracelets, and even teaching a little crochet.

If your kids love the water, we can plan a beach day at a state park. If it’s too hot, we could take a trip to an aquarium and have fun naming the penguins. For younger kids, splash pads, playground time, and picnic days are always a hit. For older kids, I’m happy to plan outings like six flags, laser tag, or even something like a Patriots practice game during preseason.

While I love getting out of the house, I also understand that kids sometimes need downtime. I believe having a plan helps make activities feel more structured and enjoyable, while still leaving room to relax and recharge at home. I like reserve certain days in the week for activities.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I believe in listening to both parents and children and being a trusted, reliable adult for everyone involved. Kids, like adults, have their own likes, dislikes, and boundaries—they just may not always have the words to express them. I pay close attention to their cues and will adapt to meet their needs.
I also prioritize safety and consistency, especially in public—we stick together and look out for one another at all times. I encourage open communication with parents and always respect the expectations and boundaries you set.
Most importantly, I approach every family without judgment. I’m here to support you, your children, and your routines in whatever way works best for your household.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children is limited, but I approach every child with patience, kindness, and an open mind. I’m ready to learn, follow routines and provided plans, I aim to support each child in a way that works best for them.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My first nanny job was as a summer nanny when I turned 20. On my birthday, I arrived to the kids surprising me with a card, singing to me, and gifting me 32 origami fortune tellers—“one for each year of my life”—I had taught the fortune tellers the day before
When I told them I was actually turning 20, we spent the afternoon riding bikes around the neighborhood and giving 12 of them away to neighbors. It was such a fun, memorable moment that really showed how creative and thoughtful kids can be. We then got birthday cake pops.
