I have raised three beautiful children of my own, and have enjoyed full-time work as a professional nanny for the last 4 years. My educational and work background are in the arts: I hold a Bachelor's Degree in fine art from Brown University and a Master of Fine Arts in poetry from Warren Wilson College, and I have worked for many years at the Goodman Theatre as a costumer. I enjoy helping children to find outlets for their own creativity, and to exercise and celebrate their strengths, whether through making art or developing skill in a sport or simply getting out of doors and being in nature. I am very comfortable with creating a rhythm and a routine for children that addresses their needs and the needs of the family. I enjoy contributing to the smooth workings of the household as well, and am happy to balance childcare with tending Read more to practical household matters. I am certified in CPR and first aid. I approach my life and my work with unconditional love and respect, joy, patience, and a sense of humor.
