Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I throughly enjoy involving kids with hands on activities such as painting, sensory bins, drawing, science experiments and anything to help open their curious minds! I try to do a craft once a day. I have professionally printed schedules that help secure a balanced, consistent day of books, lessons and fun!
My favorite activity is Morning Music Time which consists of letting the children get their sillies out by moving their bodies. Yoga is followed right after to relax and focus on our breathing and mind.

The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part about being a nanny is the energy that is portrayed throughout the entire day. It’s so crucial to remain patient and happy because children feed off of negative energy. Also, I believe in positive reinforcement rather than negative punishments!
My experience with special needs children...
Although I have no direct experience with special needs children, I did complete a college course in which I learned skills and communicative exercises.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite moments as an educator and nanny is by far watching the lightbulb go off in a child’s head when they finally accomplish something they have worked so incredibly hard on!
