Meet Tanya

  • Comfortable with pets

Hi! My name is Tanya. I’m a native Californian but I’ve lived in MS for over 25 years now. I love the slower pace of life here and the kindness and warmth of the people. I’m a mother myself, having raised a 14-year-old son. I served as a college administrator in Jackson for many years, after receiving a master’s degree and working toward a Ph.D. in French, and studying and working abroad. At this point in my life, I firmly believe that having a career as a nanny, preferably with infants, is my calling. I adore babies, having cared for newborns as young as 8 weeks old. I pride myself on providing loving, nurturing care while helping babies thrive as they develop cognitively, physically, and emotionally. I am extremely reliable, attentive, mature, an excellent communicator, and always provide a safe, supportive environment for the children in my care. With my Read more near-native fluency in the language, I also love teaching children French from birth, as I did with my own son.
