Hi! Iβm a social worker that just recently moved from Colorado to California. For the past two years I have worked in school settings with children with high behaviors. I love working with kids and am looking to nanny for a family while I wait for my social work license to be finalized and to find a new job. I have my own car that I am happy to use to drive kids to and from school or other fun activities! I am happy to work with kids of all ages but do not have any experience with babies. I love arts and crafts, swimming, and animals!! I have a cat named cricket that I love to death.

Taking care of others has always been second nature to me, and I feel so lucky to do that through childcare. I have a rich background in childcare, with multiple years of experience as both a paid and volunteer nanny. Before transitioning to full-time nanny work, I started part-time with my first family, spending two years caring for a family of four-including premature twins with medical needs, a 10-year-old, and a 3-year-old. I provided everything from daily care to emergency support, traveled with the family, and navigated medical appointments. Beyond nannying, l've worked as a lifeguard at birthday parties, cared for special needs children and adults, and even volunteered at preschools before I was of legal working age. These experiences have given me not only hands-on childcare skills but also a deep understanding of child development and special needs care. I recently moved from California to Oregon and am looking to connect with a family that values kindness, creativity, and a nurturing presence. When I'm not working, you'll usually find me painting at my easel or rock climbing to stay active. I believe in finding joy in the little thingsβ whether it's a morning coffee or a sweet, silly moment with a child. I'm committed to providing loving, reliable, and enriching care to every family I work with and am always eager to continue learning and growing in my role as a caregiver.
