Summary

I am an energetic and patient nanny who has been providing childcare professionally for almost 5 years. I have experience caring for children from newborn to 13 years old. I am highly knowledgeable in infant/toddler care regarding safety, food preparation, and educational activities to assist physical, cognitive, and social development. I'm familiar with gentle parenting and the Montessori parenting philosophy! My personal care style involves fostering kids’ independence, trying new activities, and having a bond that encourages open communication and mutual respect.
