Hello! I’m Adria, a 23 year old Doula student who’s responsible, fun, caring, organized, and dependable. I have lots of experience working with multiple children at a time, ranging from all ages. I also have experience with toddlers with special needs as well as preschool teaching experience. Some of my favorite activities to do with children are, safe playtime, arts and crafts, imaginative play, reading and helping out with any class or homework. My specialties include, communication, respect and being extremely resourceful. I am CPR certified and background checked.I can’t wait to work with you and I hope to make your life a little easier.

I have been a private career nanny for multiple families (for ages 7 months and up) for over 14 years now, as well as a daycare teacher assistant and an Au Pair. I connect very well with children; I enjoy working with the magical little beings because I’m inspired by their contagiously high-spirits and spontaneous creativity! I offer children an abundance of presence and play. I encourage nature-based exploration, creativity cultivation, and problem-solving. I draw inspiration from elements of alternative education philosophies, but I’m mostly interested in letting the child lead while I provide the appropriate boundaries and guidance. Each child is so unique, and my goal is to facilitate their unfolding. I would be a good fit for your family if you are looking for a responsible nanny with a good heart, an authentic appreciation for kids, and someone who will provide a positive contribution to their development.
