Hi families! My name is Lucianne, and I’ve been a Montessori teacher for the past 8 years. I currently work at a Montessori school, where I support children in learning with curiosity, independence, and kindness every day. I truly enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s helping with homework, exploring creative activities, or simply having fun together. I know how important it is for parents to feel at ease, so I always bring patience, responsibility, and a caring attitude. My goal is to create a safe, positive, and engaging environment where your children feel happy and supported while you have peace of mind.
Hey! My name is Sana! I have a few years of experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up with two cats for most of my life and also lived with the most lovable golden doodle, Nala! Over the past three years, I’ve also helped pet sit for friends’ cats and dogs, and I’ve cared for my roommate’s dog, Nala, for multiple days at a time. I currently work in a hybrid position, so I’m in the office three days a week. On those days, I usually leave around 8 a.m. and return by 5 p.m. I’m very flexible with my schedule and can adjust my in-office days or visit times to fit your pet’s needs. I love meeting new furry friends and will always be patient and attentive to your pet’s needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! :)
