A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Tanya. I’m a native Californian, but have lived in Mississippi for almost 25 years now! I love the slower pace of life here and the kindness and warmth of the people. I’m a mother myself, having raised a 14-year-old son. I worked as a college administrator for many years, after receiving a master’s degree and working toward a Ph.D. in French, and studying and working abroad. At this point in my life, I firmly believe that working as a nanny, preferably with infants, is my calling. I adore babies, having cared for newborns as young as 8 weeks old. I pride myself on providing loving, nurturing care while helping babies thrive as they develop cognitively, physically, and emotionally. I am extremely reliable, attentive, mature, an excellent communicator, and always provide a safe, loving environment for the babies in my care. With my near-native fluency in the language, I also love teaching infants French from birth, as I did with my own son.

More About Me

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

I taught high school French and babysat children (infant through 6 years old) before starting to nanny full-time.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Reading to them (books in French as well as English), playing with toys, coloring/drawing, playing soccer.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters most to me is being able to provide excellent care such that the child/baby feels protected and loved and thrives when s/he is with me…and that the parents feel secure knowing that their most precious thing, their child, will always be safe, nurtured, and happy in my care.

The most important part about being a nanny...

When the baby I was nannying (then 7 months old; I’d been caring for her 3 months by then and we had already bonded) hadn’t seen me for 4 days (long weekend and the family had gone out of town), she squealed with delight when she first saw me. Then as soon as I held her in my arms, she put her head down on my shoulder and nuzzled my neck. She had never done that before and I was so touched!
