Hello! I’m an English graduate student at Boston College and a daytime nanny looking for additional caretaking roles on evenings and weekends. I love kids of all ages, am passionate about exploring nature, and enjoy home cooking. I have nearly ten years of childcare and teaching experience.

Hi families! My name is Astrid. I began my childcare journey at just 19 years old. I helped out as an assistant teacher in my mother Montessori daycare for 5 years. I then went on to be a career nanny with a 4 year gap starting in 2020 due to the pandemic. In my years of being a nanny, I have taken several college courses in child psychology and development. My approach to child care is heavily influenced by the Montessori philosophy, letting the child’s mind guide me into caring for them. I have extensive experience with children from 3 months old to 6 years old. I am passionate about what I do and would love an opportunity to prove it to you.
