About me
Hello Parents, I am a Professional Nanny with 20 years of quality experience. I am Early Childhood Education certified, and First Aid and CPR certified. I have cared for children of varying ages, from newborn to school age, both long-term and short. I enjoy working with children and appreciate the opportunity to be partnering alongside parents in a supportive role, helping to nurture early development and exceeding milestone goals through music, language, play, reading readiness skills, and building independence and confidence. I am hands-on in my approach to childcare but I also know when to respectfully hang back and allow you to take the lead in your role as parents. I am also a mom of 2 grown children so I understand the level of trust that is placed in a nanny and always strive to make parents feel comfortable in that regard. I am a good communicator and am open to following your lead regarding the care of your children. I am fully vaccinated and boosted and extremely COVID cautious. I am up to date with Tdap and get the yearly flu shot. I am hoping to find my next great family for a full-time or part-time position and I am available for immediate hire! Please get in touch if you feel we are a good fit! Thanks for viewing my profile.
