A little bit about me

Hello! I'm a proud mom of five (with my youngest just graduating!) and a lifelong educator with years of hands-on experience working with children from preschool through high school. I understand how important it is to find someone who truly cares for your child—not just someone to watch them, but someone who will nurture, guide, and support them as they grow.
I'm old-school at heart, dependable, and deeply committed to creating a safe, structured, and loving environment. I believe every moment is an opportunity to learn and grow, and I bring that mindset into every interaction with children.
If you're looking for someone who will care for your little one like family, I’d love to connect and see how I can support your family’s needs.

More About Me

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

I taught 6th grade and was a paraprofessional dealing with students that learn different. I have organized many school events and managing the after school programs that included more that 8 opportunities. I am dependable and understand what parents want for their young ones. I am not afraid to play and move around.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Reading books, crafts, and exploring outside are a few favorite things to do when there is no technology.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my top priorities as a nanny is ensuring your child's safety at all times—it's at the heart of everything I do. I also believe that open, consistent communication with parents is just as important. Throughout the day, I love sharing updates, photos, and little moments so you always feel connected and included in your child's day, no matter where you are.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children is to have patience to help understand the child's thought process and to listen and not judge and offer assistance and support to create safe spaces.

The most important part about being a nanny...

A favorite moment during school is when I pull out something exciting, like running the halls and racing up the stairs with a student that needs a break. This adds excitement and support to help the chid.
