More About Me

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

Relevant experience where I also cared for children includes working in pediatric clinics as a Medical Assistant, where I regularly interacted with young patients and helped them feel comfortable during visits. I also provided part-time childcare for several families, caring for children ranging from infants to pre-teens. My EMT training included working in high-pressure situations where I ensured the safety and emotional support of children during emergencies. These experiences have strengthened my ability to stay calm, think quickly, and provide compassionate, developmentally-appropriate care.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Activities I enjoy doing with children include arts and crafts, reading books, outdoor play, and educational games that support their learning and creativity. I love encouraging imagination through storytelling, building with blocks or Legos, and doing fun science or sensory activities. For younger kids, I enjoy singing songs, tummy time, and age-appropriate play that supports development. I also like helping with homework and creating simple routines that make kids feel safe and confident.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, loving, and consistent environment where children can grow, feel supported, and be themselves. It’s not just about supervision—it’s about truly connecting with each child, understanding their needs, and building trust with the family. Being a nanny means being patient, dependable, and nurturing, while also encouraging curiosity, kindness, and confidence. I take pride in being a positive role model and a steady, reassuring presence in a child’s life.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children includes working with kids on the autism spectrum, those with ADHD, and children with developmental delays. I’ve supported families by providing structured routines, one-on-one attention, and using calm, patient communication. I’m trained to recognize sensory sensitivities and adjust activities to match each child’s individual needs. My background as a Medical Assistant and EMT also helps me stay attentive to any medical or behavioral concerns, ensuring a safe and supportive environment. I’m passionate about helping every child feel understood, included, and empowered.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite nanny moments was helping a shy 4-year-old learn how to ride a bike without training wheels. We practiced every afternoon, and I cheered him on with each small success. The day he finally took off on his own, he shouted, “I did it!” with the biggest smile—and gave me a high five. Moments like that, where kids build confidence and feel proud of themselves, are what I love most about this work
