A little bit about me

Hi! I’m a certified elementary teacher with seven years of childcare experience, and I’m passionate about creating a fun, nurturing, and educational environment for kids. I believe in hands-on learning, imaginative play, and fostering a sense of curiosity in every child I care for. Whether it’s engaging activities, homework help, or simply ensuring a safe and loving space, I bring patience, warmth, and a playful spirit to every family I work with. I’d love the opportunity to support your little ones and make their days both enriching and fun!

The most important part about being a nanny...

I think providing a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment is the most important part of working with children/youth. If they do not feel safe they cannot reach their full potential or be able to thrive.

My experience with special needs children...

- I've worked with many children with autism spectrum disorder
- Experience working in learning centres at school (students with a range of special needs including physical and mental)
- Working at Key Assets with youth who had experienced trauma and had diverse needs

The most important part about being a nanny...

It was a hot summer day and me and the three children I was caring for were playing in their pool. I then took them for a sweet ice cream treat. They said it was the most fun day they had with a babysitter!
