About me

Hello! My name is Miriam and I am a world traveler, teacher, mentor, and movement instructor. I was born in Manhattan and lived there until I was 4. I was raised in Bergenfield, New Jersey where I did all my schooling, K-12. When I graduated high school, I went to William Paterson University and earned my B.A. in Psychology.

My nanny journey started 12 years ago. As a full-time nanny, I have worked with a variety of family situations and children always finding a solution for the family. I use my academic qualifications and hands-on experience to achieve the highest standards for the children that I care for, in both their home and academic lives. Additionally, I can take on cooking duties when required and pride myself in providing balanced meals for the family. In previous roles, I have arranged a weekly sit-down conversation with the parents to discuss the child's growth and progress. I find that this offers peace of mind and parents value the input and ability to maintain and set expectations.

Highlights of my achievements as a nanny include organizing an average of 6 age-appropriate educational outings per month, including visits to museums, arts & crafts workshops, and other relevant attractions tailored to the children’s interests. Recognizing early signs of developmental delays in children aged 2 and 3, resulting in prompt diagnosis of vision impairment and ADHD, respectively. As well as ensuring appropriate levels of physical and mental activity by engaging children in active play, educational games and puzzles, and sports. Safety is my utmost concern and I carefully monitor children at home or when I take them on outings.

My goal as a Nanny is to care for, guide, instruct, protect, and teach children. Every child is an individual and each family has different needs. Thanks to my BA in Psychology and extensive experience, I’m able to provide personalized nanny care to young children of all ability levels as well as older children eager to learn and explore the world around them.
