Hello there! I'm a fun-loving, empathetic nanny with a big heart and two amazing kids of my own who keep me on my toes! I'm currently offering in-home childcare from my safe, clean, and kid-friendly home. I have a 2-year-old girl and a 3-month-old son. With real-life parenting experience and a natural knack for connecting with little ones, I bring both warmth and structure. Whether it’s having a random jam and dance session throughout the house, whipping up kid-approved snacks, or navigating the ups and downs of toddler tantrums, I’ve been there—and I get it! I also have had lots of experience outside of my children as well as you will see below. First, I grew up with a younger sister five years younger than me, and she has always been another part of me and my best friend. In High School, I was a summer camp counselor for a Read more group of around 25 children, as well as a camp counselor for children with Epilepsy and other disabilities. During those years I also worked as a lifeguard and would help children learn how to swim as well as help out at swim meets, so water safety is very important to me. I used to live in the Philippines where I worked for six months as a content marketer. However, in my free time, I would volunteer at a community center for malnourished children to provide them with supplemental feedings, as well as spend hours having fun. I realized how much I loved working with children so I chose to get TEFL certified to teach children English! I then moved to Boston where I worked for EF Cultural Care , where I worked directly with families to match them with international Au Pairs that tailored each families needs. Lastly, I worked as a nanny myself to an infant a few years before I started my own family. I believe in a mix of play, learning, and lots of laughter. Our days are filled with crafts, outdoor play, story-time, and healthy snacks—all with a focus on routine and kindness. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I treat every child in my care as if they were my own. I'm all about creating a safe, engaging environment where kids feel confident, curious, and cared for. If you're looking for someone who truly understands the joys and challenges of raising children, then we might just be the perfect fit.
