About me
When I look back on my life, I feel truly grateful for the plethora of experiences I’ve had so far. I’ve gone from summer camp counselor shenanigans to teaching English to kids on the other side of the world. I’ve gone from being a doe-eyed student teacher, to having a classroom of my very own. I’ve gone from living my life as an educator, to diving head first into the New York City nanny life. These experiences, while all very different, have one major thing in common - working with kids!
I absolutely adore working with children and I cannot imagine doing anything else. Their curiosity and excitement towards learning is contagious. Every experience has been rewarding in it's own unique way.
Through all of my experiences working with children, I’ve established very high standards for myself. I always aim to create an engaging, proactive, and loving environment. I have found through experience that this approach not only encourages children to exhibit wanted behaviors, but it also encourages them to be creative and pursuant of their own individual passions. I’m all about creativity and individuality. I consider myself a lifelong learner and aim to instill a passion for learning in the children that I work with.
I have professional child care experience with...
- Infants
- Toddlers

- School-aged (K-5)
