Hello! I have been teaching and caring for kids ages 18 mos-16 years for more than 25 years. I have two kids of my own who are school age, and have experience in caring for infants and pets as well. I have taught academics, social emotional skills, reading, music, dance, cooking, yoga, sports, fitness and art. I am CPR/IED/EpiPen certified and very safety conscious. I’ve cleared multiple background checks the past four years and can take another if needed. My style is nurturing and firm, structured but appropriately flexible. I’m a strong believer in play based learning, reading and singing daily. Mary Poppins is my role model! I make record keeping and parent/family communication a priority, to ensure trust and accountability are established and maintained. I provide a brief written summary of each child’s day/week and send photo/video updates during the day.

I have 7 years of experience caring for children aged between 8 months to 13 years old, plus housesitting and dog-walking. I'm calm under pressure, quick to adapt, and love keeping little ones (and pets!) happy and safe.

I am in my final year of teacher training, and as I look back on my journey so far, I realize how much working with kids has shaped who I am. Over the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to teach in both elementary and high school, and it has been amazing to watch students grow, learn, and gain confidence in themselves. For eight years, I have also babysat for several families, caring for children ages 2 to 12, which taught me how important it is to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment where kids feel comfortable being themselves. My involvement in scouting has been another huge part of my life—over the past ten years, I’ve worked with kids from 6 to 18, guiding them through challenges, adventures, and leadership opportunities. I even spent time in Colorado working at the YMCA, leading outdoor lessons for kids ages 8 to 16, which combined two things I love most: teaching and being outside. Across all of these experiences, one thing has become clear—I am most fulfilled when I’m working with kids. Being outdoors, learning alongside them, and helping them discover their strengths makes me feel like I am truly following my passion in life.

Hi! My name is Nicol, and I truly enjoy caring for kids and supporting families. I'm patient, responsible, creative, and friendly. I communicate with parents through daily reports, texts, or phone calls, always respecting their preferred method. I have my First Aid and CPR certification and more than 4 years of experience caring for newborns, infants, toddlers, and older children. I love playing all kinds of games with kids! Arts and crafts are definitely a favorite--I love making things together! I also enjoy puzzles, video games, and educational games. I've even played games to help teach Spanish to kids I've cared for too! And of course, I enjoy outdoor activities, like hiking, volleyball, or just playing outside. I'm open to anything that keeps the kids happy and learning while having fun (and of course with the parents authorization) . My goal is always to create a safe, positive, and fun environment where children feel supported and cared for.
