I’ve spent 6+ years working closely with children as an ABA therapist, focusing on communication, play, and everyday routines. I’m patient, reliable, and love creating a fun and safe environment. Babysitting comes naturally to me, and I treat every child like they’re my own. Parents can trust that their little ones are in caring and capable hands.

I was a Montessori assistant teacher from 2014-2020, and a private nanny for the last four years. I have experience caring for children from ages 6 weeks to 10 years old.I adore all children and love engaging them in stimulating work and play that focuses on developing their independence and confidence. I am AMI certified, an extremely hard worker and an overall outstanding childcare professional.Maria Montessori firmly believed that if peace on Earth were ever to prevail it would have to start with the children. And to start with children means starting with the individual child. Creating and facilitating age-appropriate activities, materials, and environments where the child flourishes creates independence and establishes everlasting self-confidence. The child who is treated like a valued and respected being by their adults learns to respect and value their own self. And the well-adjusted, self-assured child grows up to be an adult, healthy and peaceful in mind, body and soul, who respects and values others. That is why I passionately love working with children.

The best babysitters don’t just watch children, they become someone families can truly count on. That’s the kind of caregiver I strive to be.With over 7 years of experience working with private families throughout Fairfield County, I’ve had the privilege of caring for children as they grow from toddlers into confident, independent kids. I create a safe, structured, and loving environment where children feel comfortable being themselves while parents have complete peace of mind.Whether we’re tackling homework, creating fun activities, preparing healthy meals, heading to after-school activities, or winding down with bedtime stories, I bring patience, reliability, and genuine care to every day. I’m CPR certified, have a clean driving record, and am experienced managing everything from busy family schedules to household organization.Families often describe me as dependable, warm, and someone who treats their children as if they were my own. I value open communication, consistency, and building lasting relationships—which is why many of the families I’ve worked with continue to call me whenever they need extra support.If you’re looking for someone who will show up, keep your children safe, encourage their growth, and make your life a little easier, I’d love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family’s village.
