Hi! My name is Adriana and I'm 21 years old. I've been working with children for over four years through daycare, nannying, and helping care for family friends. I've had the opportunity to work with children of all ages and personalities, as well as with children with ADHD/ADD and ASD. My caregiving style is a balance of gentle parenting and firm guidance when necessary. While I never raise my voice, I am still able to make sure children know they are heard and understood while also being safe through calm, but effective communication.I love encouraging creativity and imagination through play and crafts, and I especially enjoy working with families who prioritize little to no screen time, and love the outdoors! I'm always happy to get on the child's level and engage with their imagination. In addition to basic childcare, I have experience being a household manager and am always willing to work out an agreement that works for each specific household!

I have worked in childcare for over 20 years in school and home settings that include nature based care, Montessori, camps, and Waldorf inspired schools. In my most recent experience working at a Children’s Center, we practiced a form of care centered around respect and the Magda Gerber approach to children known as RIE (resources for infant educators). I am happy to talk more about this if you are interested in learning more. I have a bachelor’s degree in Studio Art and have studied Yoga and the Healing Arts as well as Permaculture. I recently stepped away from working at a children’s center in Brunswick because I need a part time job in order to pursue my Farm business. I am CPR certified. I am looking for an opportunity local to Brunswick Maine and have worked with all ages from infants to teens. I also love to cook and specialize in plant based and gluten free cooking. I am happy to do home chores, prepare meals, care for pets, etc. Your child’s time with me would be lead by their interests and dependent on your values. I personally value time spent in nature, setting an example in land stewardship and respect for all living things, creative expression, and providing loving care. If you think I would be a good fit for your family, please reach out to my email jenknoeller@gmail.com or text/call me 631-809-9200.
