With over 30 years of hands-on experience nurturing children of all ages, I bring a lifelong passion and natural gift for childcare. Affectionately known as “The Baby Whisperer,” I have an intuitive ability to connect with infants and young children—creating joyful, engaging, and enriching environments wherever I go. Children are naturally drawn to me, and I truly speak their language—whether I’m soothing a newborn, connecting with a toddler, or helping a preschooler learn through play. I am currently work with children with special needs ranging in age from 3 to 26, as well as supporting 4th and 5th graders in school settings. These roles have strengthened my ability to provide individualized, compassionate care while fostering confidence and independence in each child. I’ve had the privilege of nannying for two wonderful families and raising my own children while being a stay-at-home mom for over 36 years. Caring for children doesn’t feel like work—it’s what brings me joy and purpose. I love to sing with children, do arts and crafts, and play both indoor and outdoor games. I weave learning into everyday activities—teaching letters, shapes, colors, and phonics in playful, creative ways. Time outside is one of my favorite things, whether we’re exploring nature, playing in the dirt (when allowed!), or enjoying movement and fresh air. I also have experience teaching swimming and helping children feel confident and safe in the water. I’ve completed 12 units in Early Childhood Development and am currently pursuing a degree in Child Development, giving me a strong foundation in how children grow, learn, and thrive. I’m also pursuing studies in Physical Education to support motor development and encourage active, healthy lifestyles. Highlights: 30+ years caring for children of all ages, including infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens Experience with children with special needs (ages 3–26) and elementary school students College coursework in Child Development CPR/First Aid certified Passionate about music, creative arts, outdoor play, and learning through fun Open to roles as a nanny, caregiver, or “bonus grandma” My Philosophy: Children thrive when they feel safe, loved, and encouraged. My goal is to create joyful, structured spaces where they feel free to explore, grow, and become the amazing individuals they’re meant to be.

Hello, my name is Rosie and I would like to tell you a little bit about myself: I began working with children in 2014 as an infant teacher at a daycare. During my time at the daycare I worked primarily with children of 18-24 months but also helped out in other classrooms ranging from newborns to pre-k. I was in charge of the supervision and well-being of the children in my care. I created lesson plans, led circle time, changed diapers, and provided lots of love and encouragement. The most rewarding thing about my time at this daycare was the lasting bonds I was able to establish with the children. I then began working at a preschool where I was working with children of 2. 5-5 years of age. During my time there I taught Spanish, provided conflict resolutions, and provided a safe and loving environment. Outside of my professional positions, I have occasionally taken care of my nephew since birth (he is now 3 years old). I also occasionally babysit for multiple children. I am CPR/First Aid certified, a non-smoker, have my own car, and a clean driving record. Some of my passions include crafts, reading, and hiking. My love and compassion for children is what drives me to be the best caregiver for them!
