I’ve been a career nanny the past 8 years working for families throughout Washington, and though I’ve worked with all ages, my experience has had a focus on infant through early toddler years. I think myself incredibly intuitive, which can be a blessing adapting to someone new in the home. My goal is to create a loving, safe space for your little ones, so you leave them feeling as secure in their time with me as their time with you! I have enjoyed getting to join and be part of so many families, and I’ve maintained those relationships years later, even coming back to babysit years later. I have a dance/theatre background and love incorporating that into my nannying where it fits, am quite crafty, and love creating adventures- outdoor and in. Keeping a nurturing energy, I hope to attune my position with the needs of your child as their Read more personalities change and grow. I will do this through literature, movement, sensory play, singing, outdoor grounding, and calm time, in addition to day to day daily needs. I love to keep to a schedule that creates consistency children rely on. I am CPR and first-aid certified, and have done 50 hours of training in Early Childhood Development (through STARS).
