I have over three years of experience working in a daycare with children ranging from infants through school age. During that time, I gained a strong understanding of daily routines, age-appropriate activities, and creating a safe, nurturing environment.When COVID hit, I began nannying full time for an 8-month-old, providing one-on-one care and supporting their growth and development. I really loved the closer bond that comes with nannying and working so closely with a family.I have a college degree and currently work full time in the corporate world, but I’m looking to transition back into nannyingβ€”where my heart really is. I’m reliable, easygoing, and very attentive, and I take pride in being someone families can trust with their children.I’d love the opportunity to support your family and be a positive, consistent presence in your child’s day.

Caring for children has always been something I genuinely enjoy. I have over seven years of experience working with children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers, and I love building meaningful relationships with the families I work with. Every child is unique, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and fun environment where they feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to grow.Throughout the years, I have cared for infants by preparing bottles, changing diapers, following feeding and nap schedules, and providing attentive, nurturing care. With toddlers and older children, I enjoy planning creative activities, helping with homework, preparing healthy meals and snacks, encouraging outdoor play, and maintaining consistent daily routines. I also assist with light housekeeping related to childcare, including tidying play areas, washing bottles and dishes, and children’s laundry.I pride myself on being patient, dependable, and attentive, and I understand the importance of earning a family’s trust. My goal is always to provide parents with peace of mind, knowing their children are in caring, responsible hands while making each day enjoyable and engaging for the kids.
