I have over five years of professional childcare experience, with a strong focus on infant and newborn care. I began babysitting at a young age and transitioned into nannying in my early twenties. While Iβve worked with children of all ages, caring for babies during their earliest stages of development is where I feel most confident and fulfilled.Iβm often described by families as calm, patient, and intuitive, especially with infants. I have a strong background in establishing gentle routines, supporting healthy sleep habits, and creating a nurturing, structured environment where babies feel safe and regulated. Several parents Iβve worked with have affectionately referred to me as a βsleep wizard.βI value clear communication and enjoy working collaboratively with parents to support their goals and routines. My priority is always providing attentive, reliable, and developmentally thoughtful care so families can feel confident and at ease while theyβre away.
