Hi! My name is Astou, and I absolutely adore caring for children. For the past few years I have had the pleasure working with kids age ranging from infant to adolescents, at daycares and preschools in the Massachusetts/Providence area. I enjoy playing outside, arts and crafts, reading and creative play. I believe children hold on to memories that help shape who they want to become, and I hope to help make unforgettable experiences and memories with them!

Hi! I’m a responsible and caring person who loves working with kids. I have experience babysitting and helping with daily routines, homework, and keeping kids engaged. I’m patient, reliable, and always focused on creating a safe, fun environment. Some experience that I have includes being involved in a child development internship since my sophomore year. It has helped me gain hands on experience working with kids from a daycare, to pre school, up to 3rd grade. I’m responsible, patient, and love creating a fun, safe environment!

I have been a dedicated nanny for 13 wonderful years. I am enthusiastic and energetic about life and the work I do. I am looking for a long-term, consistent position with a family that I can grow with. Most recently, I was with a family for 10 years. I began working with this family when the boys were 2 mo. and 2 years old. It was especially important that I meet the needs of each individual boy. We did many activities together. Lots of reading, trips to the museums, parks, and lots of play time. Time was also spent just relaxing and enjoying the world around us. I also assisted with homework and school activities as the boys got older. They also now have a lovely daughter who is 2 y.o. General household management/organization are also on my skill list. From laundry, errands, and healthy meal preparation to transportation to activities. I am experienced caring for newborns and infants also. I was part of my first family for 3 years. I started with them prior to the birth of their very loveable twin boys. I helped care for the twins, their curious 3 y.o. sister, and their adventurous 6 y.o. brother. It is fantastic being with families with many children!! There is never a dull moment:):) I have a Master’s Degree in Psychology. Prior to my career as a nanny, I worked as a home based therapist / case manager for children and adolescents, many of whom had special needs. I have a calm, easygoing personality. I love to laugh and have fun!! In my spare time I enjoy reading, keeping fit, cooking, and giving my dog lots of TLC:):) I am punctual and thorough. I drive a safe, reliable, 4-wheel drive vehicle, and have a safe driving record. I can provide excellent professional and personal references. Thank you for taking the time to read my biography. Be Well, Maureen
