I am a family daycare provider with 25+ years experience. First aid and CPR certified. CORI and fingerprint checked through EEC in Massachusetts. I have an extensive background with special needs children.

I am dedicated to helping nurture the next generation. Connecting to the land is essential for children learning to ground and regulate as well as to feel joy, safety, and centeredness in their bodies. My bachelor’s degree is in Environmental Education, and I have worked in a variety of related professional settings from residential outdoor education programs to state parks to sustainable farming camps. I hold my Permaculture Design Certificate and am currently training as a clinical herbalist. I enjoy organic gardening and foraging as well as cooking and food preservation. I love to get kids involved with these skills and to help them live into a rhythm of seasonality. Not only fun, these activities are also a way to introduce important ecological and natural history concepts. I personally support outdoor free play whenever it’s safe and feasible, even (especially!) in the wintertime. I encourage kids in developing autonomy along with body and emotional awareness. I also promote creative expression through the use of natural and recycled materials in artistry and craft. I am primarily a stay-at-home-mother, so depending on scheduling, my three-and-a-half-year-old son may come along with me for babysitting.

Before I trained to become a Waldorf kindergarten teacher, I was the sitter for 2 children, Lukas and Hannah, 10 mos. and 4 yrs. old respectively. I also was the caregiver to 2 wonderful little girls, age 21/2 and 5. I absolutely loved it! Once I had my own son,, I received my Children's CPR certificate,.I went to school to be a Waldorf teacher, and interned at the Great Barrington Rudolf Steiner school, and then hired to become an assistant, under the tutelage of Michele Kuzia. What a beautiful form of education. I then worked in the hotel field for several years. I've now circled back to my love of children. My most recent experience has been caring for my nieces and nephews ( 5 months, 3 yrs old, 5 yrs old) I'm looking into getting a certification as an infant care specialist, and also creating movement classes for small children. Working with children is truly a joy for me.

I began watching children at a young age by being a big sister, caring for family members, and eventually family friends children as well. At 18 years old I began my professional career as a nanny. I have a background in early childhood education, and have also gone to school briefly for psychology. I have background nannying in a Montessori household, as well as other households with different beliefs. My extensive childcare experiences, as well as educational background, I can successfully take care of your children and manage a household. As a productive and vibrant person, I have worked with many young children and enjoyed engaging them in imaginative, and outdoor activities. I have a history of arranging fun engaging activities, and overseeing the children's development. Additionally, I am able to provide care throughout the day including educational play, meal preparation, light housekeeping duties, trips to the park or library, and other activities that may encourage development. I am comfortable playing with the children, reading books, and having primary focus on them. I am a non-smoker, physically fit, I am a very hard worker, and am able to maintain confidentiality. My employers would note me as a calm, resourceful, and impactful nanny who is able to take charge and make decisions based on the guidelines of parents. My childcare skills, with my upbeat attitude and friendly nature, will help me succeed in any nanny role. I would love the opportunity to work with you and your family. Thanks so much for your time. -Alyssa
