About me

I love working with kids and babies. I always have. When I was 12, my next door neighbor left her newborn twins with me every day while she picked up her older daughter from school. It's been a very important part of my life since. Over the years, I have worked as a teacher, a counselor, an actress, and a stage manager. While earning my degree in Event Management, I developed a children's program at a Ritz-Carlton and performed at Walt Disney World.

When I am invited into a home, there will be lots of time spent playing, laughing and exploring. While safety always comes first, I have found that the more respect you give to people, the more you are likely to get back, so that is the place that I come from when engaging with children as well. I have a lot of experience cooking to accommodate a variety of diets and allergies, and I am happy to pass along these skills to kids who are interested in spending time in the kitchen.

Caring for little ones has always brought out the best in me. It allows me to nurture, connect and teach. I love learning about people, and getting to help shape and guide how children are understanding and taking on the world around them with a sense of curiosity and mindfulness.
