Meet Chani

  • Comfortable with pets

In the past 8 years I have cared for children in many different ways-- I have done full time long term work, I have taught creative movement and dance classes, I have worked at a nanny agency doing temporary placements and I have au paired abroad. The ages I've cared for range from 4mo. to teens.  Through these different interactions Ive gotten to enjoy all kinds of children. I like to be able to bring my creativity from my dance/arts background into my work.  I'm always so amazed at how children can take an idea i might have and turn it into and amazing game or project.  Honestly, I like all ages--the last family i worked for was a family of 3 boys ranging infant to 7. It really highlighted to me the needs and attentiveness required for each stage of development. I always encourage and help facilitate arts and Read more crafts, cooking projects, puzzles, puppet shows.  I am also a big advocate for being outside, i think its important for people big and small. I have lots of energy and am fairly atheltic, so I am always up for a game of tag or soccer.
