Sharing in a child's growth day by day is both an honor and a tremendous responsibility. I understand the critical role I play when families entrust their children to me, and I'm dedicated to providing a safe, warm environment where children learn and grow at their own pace through play, exploration, and curiosity. I've devoted my life to raising kind, inquisitive, confident children. I believe every interaction is an opportunity—a conflict teaches negotiation and problem solving, an injury teaches empathy, and mealtimes teach conversation, manners, and culture. Children become confident through independence and thrive when surrounded by people who genuinely love them. My Bachelors and Masters Degrees in Early Childhood Education as well as my training as a Developmental Intervention Assistant means I'm always aware of where a child is developmentally and what comes next, so I can intentionally support their growth through play. You are the experts on your Read more children. Your input and desires are crucial, and our relationship is a true partnership built on open, honest communication. I value feedback and thrive when my expertise supports both children and parents as we work together as a team. Early childhood education is my life's work and my passion. I wake up every morning excited to see what magic we can create. Being part of a family's journey is an honor I never take lightly, and I'd love the opportunity to be part of yours. I currently have a wonderful full time nanny job Mon-Friday but am looking for opportunities to babysit evenings and weekends. If I can help your family, please reach out to me!
