More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
My relevant experience includes working as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) for over two years, providing one-on-one care and support to children with autism and developmental disabilities. I also completed a year-long student teaching placement in a kindergarten classroom and have experience working in an infant childcare center. Additionally, I’ve worked as an elementary school tutor and have experience babysitting and caring for children of various ages. Through these roles, I’ve gained extensive experience with daily routines, play, learning activities, behavior support, communication, and creating a safe, positive environment for children.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Arts & crafts, outdoor play, going to the park, reading books, baking, pretend play, board games, puzzles, sensory activities, nature walks, playground trips, educational games, swimming, bike rides, music & dancing, library trips, coloring, building with blocks/LEGOs, sports, and age-appropriate outings.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is creating a safe, caring, and positive environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I believe in being someone both the child and parents can trust while providing dependable care, having fun, encouraging independence, and supporting each child’s individual needs and personality.
My experience with special needs children...
I have over two years of experience as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) working one-on-one with children with autism and developmental disabilities. I also have a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education and experience supporting children with a variety of communication, behavioral, learning, and daily living needs in home, school, and clinical settings.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite moments are when a child becomes comfortable enough to truly be themselves with me! Whether it’s seeing them master a new skill, hearing them laugh during a silly activity, or having them get excited when I arrive, I love building relationships where children feel safe, supported, and excited to spend time together.
