I am a mature, energetic, professional Montessori educator with over 30 years of experience working with children between the ages of 2 ½ to 6 years of age. In addition to my professional experience, I am the Great Aunt to a family of five children, ages 10, 8, 5, and a set of 2-year old twins, and delight in being a very active participant in their day-to-day lives. My experience in being around from their births to the age they are today has given me insights and additional understanding of children’s needs before the age of 2 and beyond 6. I have been blessed to be part of the hectic lifestyle that this large family deals with from individual schedules to group activities that include the whole family. What is the value added that I can bring to your children? • A person who loves being with children and appreciates Read more their uniqueness. • I can build an environment in which your children are free to grow and explore by reinforcing predictable schedules and expectations. • I can create age-appropriate sequential instructional activities in language, math, science, geography, writing, and daily living skills. • I can offer your children my love of expressive reading, the joy of singing, and the enjoyment of learning. • I look forward to engaging your children in locally available "field trips"; exploring the outdoors, visiting recreational areas like parks, zoos, museums, and libraries. • I can balance enrichment activities and free time. I love to seize the moment and just have fun! As your Nanny, my role is to provide nurturing support when you aren’t able to be with your children. In addition, I will work with you, the parents, to set up the children's home environment to make their time apart from you (as well as your precious time with them) more enjoyable and enriching. This hinges on fostering order, independence, and helping children achieve self-discipline and self-direction.
