A little bit about me

Hello,
I hope my profile works well for you!

I have led numerous programs for children of just about all ages both in and out of the school system. My experience with the youth is for as long as I can remember as I have always had to help family with taking care of young ones. I love the authenticity and joy of children and am a big advocate for proactive ways of helping a kid use their resources. I am a recent graduate from the University of Connecticut, with a degree in psychological sciences.

My career aspiration is to become a a counselor or graduate professor who enriches the mental health and social emotional development of children, teens, adults, and couples.

I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids as there is truly never a dull moment! I also love helping people as I know it can have such a lasting impact. Helping and getting to know the family is always a plus :)

The most important part about being a nanny...

As someone who has moved from a different country as a child, been around children all my life, and have led clubs that provide resources for children in low income areas, I think the most important part of being a nanny is being patient, attentive, and positive.

Remembering that they are a child and doing what they know best at the time. I make sure to remember how I felt in my youth and what I needed from those supervising me.

My experience with special needs children...

I have 6 to 8 years of experience working with children on and off the spectrum. I have teaching, mentoring, and tutoring experiences starting from toddlers onto college students.

My degree and love for psychological sciences has given me a unique perspective on children. Having always been around kids since I was younger as their primary caregiver has shaped me up to be a wonderful nanny.

I am very passionate about child development for kids of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds, religions, races, and etc. having experience with infants through teenagers gives me a very large skill set when it comes to a nanny role.

Consistency and reliability are very important to me especially when working with kids. I look forward to helping families in anyway I can :)

Thank you!
