Hi there! My name is Lindsay and I would love to be your little one's new best friend! (Well-- nanny, but my goal is always to be both!) I've worked in child care since I was 15 years old and have always had an interest in childhood education and development. In my many years of babysitting and nannying, I have accumulated extensive experience with babies, toddlers, and kids up to 13 years old! While working with children, I love to play games, color, read, and encourage an active and creative lifestyle. iPad time is great, but using our imagination and moving our bodies is so much more fun! I prioritize honest discussions of thoughts and feelings, and use my education on the Montessori method to encourage not only academic milestones, but emotional and personal milestones as well. If they are of the age to do so, I find that being Read more someone they can have open communication with really strengthens the bond and trust in the relationship. Ensuring they feel comfortable talking to me, venting to me, and being expressive is vital. A child's self expression is important at any age and I pride myself in establishing that is always respected. I want to create a solid foundation where we can treat each other with respect and integrity. Overall, I am always striving to be someone your child looks forward to spending time with each day. I want to be a source of fun and safety, as well as a caretaker and educator. My goals are always to build a positive influential friendship as your children grow and learn. I would love to get to know you and your little one, so feel free to reach out if I seem like a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you! All the best, Lindsay
