Mother, School Teacher, Yoga Teacher, and NannyAvailable for full days on Thursday & Friday, and occasional sitting all days. Hello! I’ve been a babysitter, a nanny, a teacher, and a school administrator. I’m the mom of an inspiring teenager, who teaches me an innumerable amount of lessons about raising children. Working with children and in education has been a drive of mine since I was a kid myself. I started babysitting at 13, in the 90’s (can you believe we let 13 year olds do that back then?!). I taught elementary level at an afterschool and summer school program throughout undergraduate. I nannied for several families, including one family for five years. I left that job to start my own family, focusing more on freelance writing while I raised my child. I’ve continued to write while working as a preschool teacher, and then tutor recruitment and training coordinator for a DESE school.I also studied in the Critical and Creative Thinking graduate program at UMASS Boston for two semesters, to be continued. CCT focuses on learning and applying ideas and tools in critical thinking, creative thinking, and reflective practice. It applies very well to childcare and has helped me build valuable insight and skills.Additionally, I am an RYT200 yoga teacher, with 90 hours of youth yoga teacher training, and trauma-informed. So if the kids are interested in yoga, exercise, or meditation, I’m happy to share what I know! Even if the kids aren’t into yoga, this training gave mea better understanding of child development. I have a driver’s license, but do not own a car. However, I do own a Yuba cargo bike with room for two children and 4 grocery bags, with 18 years of bike commuter experience!

I have several years of childcare experience caring for my siblings, cousins, nieces, and nephews from the newborn stage through age 13. Through this experience, I have become comfortable with feeding, diaper changes, bottle preparation, nap and bedtime routines, helping with homework, and planning fun, age-appropriate activities. I strive to create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and supported.In addition to caring for my family members, I worked as a camp counselor through the Summer Youth Employment Program (SYEP), where I supervised children in 2nd grade, 3rd grade, 5th grade, and middle school. My responsibilities included leading games and educational activities, ensuring children’s safety, encouraging teamwork, resolving conflicts, and serving as a positive role model. These experiences have strengthened my patience, responsibility, communication, and leadership skills, making me confident in caring for children of all ages.

Hi there!My formal education is in fine art photography, ceramics, and entrepreneurship, but have been a full-time nanny for the last six years. I consider myself a jack of all trades, which has proven to be a great hit with kids since I have fun dabbling in just about anything! I'm always up for a fun, creative craft from my supply of materials, while modeling how to cleanup and keep our space tidy. Your child will also learn all the fundamentals and more, catered to their age and development.I'm consistently researching gentle/conscious parenting and utilizing the tools I learn to foster a relationship founded on compassion, curiosity, consent and respect. It is important that your child feels safe, loved and confident. I'm more than happy to help with light housekeeping, meal prep, and laundry. I also enjoy caring for animals of every variety, at every life stage.
