I hold a degree in Child Development and Early Childhood Education and have extensive experience working with children. From 2009 to 2019, I taught preschool-aged children, fostering their growth and development through engaging activities and personalized care. In 2019 and 2021, I worked as a Head Camp Counselor at a Girl Scout Camp, where I planned and led programs to create a fun and enriching environment. In 2022, I was promoted to Program Manager at the camp, further expanding my leadership and organizational skills. Additionally, I have hands-on experience as a nanny for two children, ages 2 and 4, and babysat for a family with a toddler from 2022 until the end of January. My responsibilities include preparing simple meals, assisting with potty training, and keeping the child engaged through indoor and outdoor activities. During the spring I babysat a one year old a few times. This summer I have been babysitting a six and ten year old. I also babysat 20 month year old twins a few times recently. Working with children has always been my passion, and I am currently seeking a babysitting position a few days during the week with preschool or elementary-aged children. My goal is to provide a nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment for the children in my care.

I am a compassionate, responsible, and energetic nanny with a genuine love for working with children. With 10 years of experience in childcare—ranging from full-time nannying to teaching in special education elementary schools and middle schools—I have cared for children of various ages, from toddlers to pre-teens. I have a strong history of dependability and reliability. As a warm, patient, and creative nanny, I am able to form strong and trusting bonds with children. I enjoy engaging activities such as crafts, reading, outdoor play, and age-appropriate learning games, and am open to taking children on excursions in the community if desired.

I've worked in childcare since sophomore year of high-school doing after school programs and babysitting. I am CPR certified and have plenty of experience with children from infant to middle school, as well as children with autism and other neurodiversities. I firmly believe in patience, calm voices, and creative solutions when working with children. I like to meet kids where they're at and form trust between us so we can get along well and respect one another. Currently, I am 25 and looking to work with younger children of smaller families as I am dealing with difficulty working due to Ehlers Danlos and other disabilities. I can hold babies, change diapers, make bottles and cook, play, and put kids down for nap, but struggle with lots of running and very active play due to my physical limitations, as well as long hours or several work days back to back. I am also trans and would like to work with welcoming and accepting families of the lgbt community.

I have over two years of experience as a professional nanny, caring for children of various ages, from infants to school-aged kids.

I’m experienced in meal preparation, bedtime routines, and light housekeeping, ensuring a smooth day for both children and parents. I am currently in the process of renewing my CPR certification to ensure I’m fully prepared for any emergency situations. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can thrive.
