I am a dedicated and passionate professional caregiver with 4.5 years of experience caring for youth in a Residential Placement Facility. I have a background in Social Work that has taught me the importance of creating an environment that fosters positive mental and emotional development in youth. Before my work in a group home, I spent several years as a nanny for three young children. I have experience with all age ranges and am comfortable with varying degrees of behavioral/developmental delays. I am certified in CPR/First Aid, Water Safety, Medication Administration, Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), and The MANDT System. These trainings have equipped me with the following (additional) skills: building trust and rapport, effective communication, active listening, understanding challenging behavior, crisis prevention/intervention, cultural competence, de-escalation techniques, conflict resolution, safety, post-crisis support, empowerment, meeting physical needs, sensory integration, understanding trauma, and positive behavioral support. I am currently working on my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and will be specializing in parental/family counseling. I have a clean driving record/criminal background check and a reliable vehicle with car insurance. I am comfortable with pets and houseplants and very clean/organized! My goal is to provide meaningful and quality services by tailoring it to every family/child's age range, needs, likes/dislikes, and abilities. This could include homework help, arts/crafts, games, cooking, exercise, outdoor activities, gardening, reading, music, etc. If your family has a specific need that is not listed in my bio, please don't hesitate to ask!

Hi! Do you need a nanny who is experienced with infants? Do you want peace of mind with your first child? I’d love to help. For starters, I can babywear, purée food, handle washing cloth diapers, take stroller walks, read books, sing lullabies, and rock to sleep. I believe play-based learning helps children develop crucial skills, and keeps them active and inquisitive. If you want a crunchy/ granola nanny, let’s chat. Additional details : I just renewed my CPR first aid certificate. I am currently vaccinated. I have my own transportation and I love animals! I’m available starting January 2026
