A little bit about me

Hi, I’m Taylor! I have over 13 years of experience working with children in educational, behavioral, and childcare settings. My experience includes working as a preschool teacher, teacher’s aide, after-school aide, camp counselor, babysitter, and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). I am also CPR certified.

I have worked with children of various ages, abilities, and developmental needs. I value providing individualized care and creating a safe, structured, and nurturing environment where children feel supported and encouraged to grow.

I enjoy getting to know each child’s personality, interests, routines, and individual needs. I am experienced in planning age-appropriate activities, maintaining routines, supervising play, supporting social-emotional development, and encouraging positive behavior with patience and consistency.

I value open communication with parents and strive to be a reliable, attentive, and positive presence for every family I work with. I can’t wait to connect!

More About Me

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

My childcare experience includes working as a teacher’s aide, after-school aide, camp counselor, babysitter, preschool teacher, and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). Across these roles, I have supported children with daily routines and transitions, facilitated age-appropriate activities, supervised indoor and outdoor play, prepared snacks, and promoted the development of social-emotional skills. My professional background has strengthened my ability to provide attentive, individualized care while maintaining a safe, structured, and nurturing environment. I value consistency, patience, and positive communication and strive to ensure each child feels comfortable, supported, and encouraged!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy providing children with engaging, age-appropriate activities that encourage creativity, learning, and active play. Some of my favorite activities include arts and crafts, painting, drawing, music and movement, reading, outdoor play, nature walks, and interactive games. I enjoy adapting activities to each child’s individual interests, abilities, and developmental level. My goal is to create meaningful experiences that encourage curiosity, self-expression, social-emotional development, and independence while ensuring children are having fun in a safe and supportive environment!

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters most to me as a nanny is creating a genuine connection with the children I care for. I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and excited to spend time with me while knowing they have someone they can trust and depend on. I love getting to know each child’s unique personality, interests, and little routines that make them who they are.

I also want to be someone parents can truly rely on. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your child, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether we’re doing an activity, working through a difficult moment, or simply enjoying our day together, I strive to be patient, present, encouraging, and consistent. For me, being a nanny is about becoming a positive and dependable part of a child’s life while giving parents peace of mind that their child is cared for and valued.

My experience with special needs children...

I have professional experience working as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), providing individualized support to children with autism spectrum disorder and other developmental and behavioral needs. In this role, I implemented individualized behavior intervention plans, supported communication and social skill development, assisted with emotional regulation and daily living skills, and used positive reinforcement strategies to encourage progress. My experience has strengthened my ability to remain patient, attentive, and adaptable while providing a safe, structured, and supportive environment tailored to each child’s individual needs.
