After graduating from Cornell University, I will be starting medical school in the Triangle Area. My hours are flexible, and I possess the knowledge and skills to ensure a safe, healthy, and stimulating environment for your children. I strive to create a friendly and nurturing atmosphere where children can thrive and develop. I understand that each child is unique, so I am dedicated to meeting your individual childcare requirements.

Hi Iβm Nandi, a senior undergraduate studying neurobiology and astrophysics! My main childcare experiences have been as an oral surgical assistant in the summer months. And Special Olympics Washington DC where I had the incredible opportunity to support, teach, organize competitions for both youth and adults with mental or physical special needs. Both experiences have required creating engaging activities tailored to the unique needs of an individual while promoting overall health, physical and mental wellbeing. Alongside childcare I hope to make a meaningful impact in the academic lives of young learners by encouraging and assisting their exploration of math, science, reading and writing!

Hi there, my name is Jess! I am an Ivy League graduate who has a passion for working with children. Iβm new to Wyndy, but not new to childcare!I grew up with two much younger siblings and spent my formative teenage years babysitting. In college, I worked summers for the continued adult education program on campus where I provided group childcare for parents who took evening classes. After college, I worked at a school where I managed a sensory room for kids with special education needs. It was my job to use sensory play to help kids calm down when they experienced overwhelming, stressful, or upsetting situations at school. I also worked as a part time tutor for Kaplan! More recently, Iβve worked in nonprofit program management, for example with the Washington State Department of Early Learning (to improve early childhood development with childcare centers) and with the Washington State Department of Health (to implement respiratory health testing for K-12 students and to coordinate childhood vaccine clinics). However, I now find myself wanting to get away from Zoom calls and desk work and get back to what I love most β hanging out with kids!Iβve taken care of kids of all ages, from toddlers to teens. I have a particular passion for helping kids learn, whether itβs with homework help, a scavenger hunt in nature, or teaching them a new baking recipe. Iβm very activity-oriented and love to watch kids explore the world and experience new things β for me, thatβs the joy of working with children! When I babysit or nanny, I like to come with ideas of things to do with the kiddos, but also like to follow their lead and participate in the passions they have. Sometimes kids have big emotions! When I am taking care of a child who gets upset, I get down on their level, listen and validate their feelings, and work patiently with the child to help them calm down.In my free time, Iβm an avid soccer player and hiker. But I also love a cozy indoor puzzle day with my cats. I am a total animal lover and volunteer with the Whatcom Humane Society, so Iβd be happy to support you with any animal care needs while Iβm hanging out with the kids. I would describe myself as communicative, funny, responsible, and organized. As they say, it takes a village to raise a kid, and Iβd love to be a part of yours!
