I love working with children of all age groups, I do adore working with infants. My mother had a private pre-school so it was a formative part of my upbringing that has stayed with me. I enjoy watching and being part of their first time experiences while observing infants, toddlers, elementary, middle school, etc. stages develop. I have over 10 years of experience and I believe my intuition as well as my sensitivity fosters positive, solid growth and well being. Thank you for your time and consideration.

I graduated from Westmont college in 2025 with a degree in psychology and theater. I have years of experience working with kids, including teaching middle school, one on one ABA therapy for children on the autism spectrum, and extensive childcare experience. My specialty is creativity and play. My background in psychology helps me understand emotional regulation, sensory needs, and individualized support strategies. I learned in my time in ABA that structure and rigidity has a place, but I prefer to have more of a genuine relationship with my kiddos. I like to play and get on their level, but know how to maintain respect as well. I’m trained in positive reinforcement and have experience navigating meltdowns and transitions calmly and supportively. I have developed and worked on theater festivals and productions with kids and love using theater, art, and storytelling as tools for connection, emotional expression, and learning through play. You can find me usually spending a lot of time training and entertaining my 2 year old Aussie-doodle with daily walks, hikes, and trips to the dog park!

I'm a registered nurse with a degree recognized in the U. S. and experience caring for children of all ages, from newborns to older kids. I've worked in pediatric hospitals, maternity wards, preschools, and as a nanny with long-term families. I also have experience with children who are sick or have conditions. I'm comfortable handling daily routines like meals, bath time, and overall health care, always respecting each family's values and preferences. Right now, I'm looking for a new opportunity as a nanny where I can bring my experience, responsibility, and genuine care for children.
