About me

I am a working artist and have worked as a manny for over 6 years. My mother, her sister, and my grandmother all are preschool directors, so working with children is really in my blood. I have worked in preschools, camps, one-on-one as a shadow, and more recently as a manny.

Over the two I stepped away from childcare to focus on creative opportunities, but I am going back to school to pursue a graduate degree, so mannying is perfect for my schedule. All of my previous positions have been fantastic learning experiences, and helped me become more organized and work on many different projects at once. I definitely missed spending as much time outside with children, but am open to any sort of position going forward.

What I like about being a manny is I get to work outside and be active. I am a very active person myself, and don’t like sitting behind a desk all day. I work on personal creative projects, and the typical manny work hours work great with this. I also love to share my artistic experience with the children I work with. If a helping hand is ever needed in the kitchen, I am adept at healthy, gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan cooking. In the end, what really draws me to working with children is the fact that it helps me take an active role in my community, and foster relationships that lend to great children becoming great adults.
