I’m a career rotational nanny looking to fill some time and pull in a little side income on my time off. I love outdoor adventures (especially paddle boarding), cooking, DIY/home organization projects, reading, running, and yoga. As a nanny/child care provider, I’m pretty well-rounded and prefer to take a child-led approach, following children’s interests and passions to weave in learning organically. I prioritize outdoor play, crafts, imaginative play, reading books, and time with siblings and/or peers over screens. I also have a TEFL certificate, and spent 5 years teaching around the world, so I’m pretty comfortable helping out with homework, and more academic tasks as well. The parenting style I most align with is gentle parenting. I have firm boundaries around safety and respect, but always enforce them with plenty of warmth, patience, and understanding. I’m highly structured and organized, and work best in a home where boundaries are clear, Read more routines are consistent, and children are given age-appropriate levels of agency and independence.
