I’d love the opportunity to support your family as a nanny. I bring over 4 years of hands-on experience working in a school setting with children ranging from 2 months to 5 years old, including those with special needs. That background has taught me how to adapt quickly, communicate clearly, and create a nurturing environment tailored to each child’s unique personality and developmental stage. In addition to my school experience, I’ve spent the past year babysitting for families on the side, which has deepened my understanding of home routines and the importance of building trust with both children and parents. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m happy to provide references upon request.
