Caring for children has been my passion for over 10 years. I started babysitting at 13, volunteered with children at church throughout high school, and have built my career around professional childcare ever since. From 2[removed], I worked as a live-in au pair in the United States, caring for children full-time. After returning to Germany, I continued working as a full-time nanny for three children while attending university. I later returned to the U.S. as a live-in nanny and now work as a professional nanny. I have experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and with families of many different sizes. Beyond childcare, I've managed daily routines, prepared meals, driven children to activities, helped with homework, taught early reading skills, supported potty training, organized household tasks, and served as a household manager and family assistant. My childcare philosophy is built on patience, consistency, and respect. I believe children deserve to be listened to and spoken to with kindness. I set clear expectations while taking the time to explain things in a way they can understand, helping them build confidence, independence, and strong communication skills. Families describe me as dependable, calm, organized, and genuinely invested in helping their children thrive. Whether you need ongoing care or dependable last-minute backup care, I'll provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for your children.

I have worked in school districts for 10 years plus. Most of it was with special education, children. For the last five years, I’ve taken care of my very sick husband.. He goes to Dialysis three times a week of which I have already put into the hours I can work and he also has short-term memory loss. I have a great deal of patience and empathy for those that are younger and those that may have minor mental and emotional problems. I take very seriously what it is that I do. I do not consider these individuals as lesser people. I especially love children. I have 10 grandchildren, and I taught all of them how to swim. I was a major part in their lives and as a result of my support as has been told to me by my children, my grandchildren are stable and productive individuals in the society. But I mostly love and enjoy little one’s handicapped or not.
