I have over 4 years of professional nanny experience, following previous experience as a lead sports coach, where I regularly supervised and coached groups of 3–9 children and young adults ranging in age from 4–18 years.
Throughout my nanny career, I have cared for children from 6 months to 11 years old, with experience supporting children with a wide range of individual needs, including both neurotypical and neurodivergent children. I also have experience managing food allergies ranging from mild sensitivities to anaphylactic allergies, with a strong focus on safety, prevention, and following family-specific care plans.
I have independently completed a variety of educational certificates through online educational institutions, with coursework focused on Montessori education, neurodiversity, early childhood education (ECE), child development, and age-appropriate learning.
My approach to childcare is centered around creating a safe, nurturing, engaging, and encouraging environment where children feel comfortable being themselves. I believe in following each child’s individual interests and using them as opportunities to encourage curiosity, creativity, learning, and exploration.
I place a strong emphasis on helping children develop independence, confidence, problem-solving skills, communication, and age-appropriate life skills, while providing appropriate guidance and support. I enjoy creating activities that are both fun and purposeful and adapting my approach to suit each child’s personality, developmental stage, interests, and needs.
