About Me I am an experienced, nurturing caregiver with 10+ years of varied experience, including private nannying, daycare, preschool, and school settings. I’m also mom to an 8.5 month old baby. I genuinely love working with infants and toddlers and find deep joy in supporting their growth, curiosity, and confidence during these early years. As a parent myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your child. I bring a calm, thoughtful, and joyful presence to my caregiving. I’m attentive to infant routines, feeding schedules, naps, and developmental milestones, and I value clear, consistent communication with parents. I’m especially interested in working with families who have infants or young children close in age to my own, as shared routines and peer-like play can be a wonderful fit when appropriate. Experience My background spans private nannying throughout high school, college and early adulthood, assistant teaching 3–4-year-old Read more preschool, and working in school-based environments. I also taught preschool and kinder dance classes, supporting young children’s coordination, listening skills, self-expression, and joy through movement. Across roles, I’ve cared for infants and toddlers with attention to routines, naps, feeding, play, and transitions, while creating a warm, structured, and supportive environment. Care Philosophy I believe early childhood should be about connection, play, and presence. I love reading, music and movement, sensory play, and spending time outdoors when weather allows. I do not use screen time and prefer an environment that encourages curiosity, creativity, and real interaction. I am patient, dependable, and intentional, and I aim to create a space where children feel safe, supported, and free to explore.
