A little bit about me

I have often been told that I bring a caring, engaging energy — especially with babies and young children. I love sparking their curiosity, following their lead in play, and creating routines that make them feel secure, heard, and loved.
Supporting families in their growing season is important. It's a hard job being a good parent, reliable support systems make all the difference.

I currently nanny on flex/temp. schedule for 2 families.

I appreciate being able to bring all my own learnt skills as an involved mom of 3 kids, my knowledge of early childhood education and my years of experience successfully homeschooling from Pre-K to College.

I am neurodiversity-aware, have certifications supporting children with learning differences such as dyslexia.

Let’s chat to see if I’m a great fit for your family.

CPR and First Aid certified.
