More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I was a preschool teacher, Montessori teacher and horseback riding summer camp counselor.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love keeping children engaged with activities that are fun, creative, and appropriate for their age and interests. Some of my favorites include arts and crafts, drawing, reading together, imaginative play, board games, puzzles, baking, and listening to music. I also love getting outside for walks, playground trips, nature activities, swimming, and exploring local parks. I enjoy planning trips to libraries, museums, zoos, and other kid-friendly places as well. Most importantly, I love getting to know each child and finding activities based on what genuinely excites them!
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and trusting environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I believe children thrive when they feel heard, supported, and cared for. I also value building a strong relationship with parents through communication, reliability, and respecting their parenting style. My goal is to be someone the entire family can depend on while helping their children grow, learn, and feel loved along the way.
My experience with special needs children...
I love keeping children engaged with activities that are fun, creative, and tailored to their individual interests and abilities. Some of my favorites include arts and crafts, drawing, reading, imaginative play, board games, puzzles, baking, and music. I also love outdoor activities like walks, playground trips, swimming, and exploring local parks, as well as outings to libraries, museums, and zoos.
I also have experience caring for children with autism, ADHD, and other neurodiverse needs. I understand that every child is different, and I’m comfortable adapting activities, routines, communication, and expectations to help each child feel comfortable, included, and supported. Most importantly, I enjoy getting to know each child as an individual and discovering what makes them happy and excited to learn!

The most important part about being a nanny...
One of my favorite nanny moments is when a child who was initially unsure about having a nanny began asking to spend time with me and told me how much he loved having me there. We bonded over Pokémon, drawing, and spending time together, and seeing that trust develop meant so much to me. Moments like that are why I love being a nanny. There’s nothing better than knowing a child feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely happy to see you. Building those special relationships is my favorite part of what I do!
