Hello families! I am a former career nanny with over 25 years of experience with children up to 10 years old, but primarily my care has been with newborn to 18 month olds. I have done long term (1+ years) as well as occasional work for families either as a one-on-one situation to a nanny share of three children (two 8mo & a 6yo!). Depending on a family's needs, I am able to prepare snacks/meals/bottles, run errands, light housekeeping, scheduling, & other odds & ends. I have a background in vegan, vegetarian, & gluten free cooking (I used to be a baker!) as well as experience with specialty diets & allergies.
I have a strong background in sleep training, fine muscle work, sign language, tummy time, crawling & walking, education, & some basic language work with Spanish & French. My care focuses on time outside, crafts, games, teaching, & exploration. If you are looking for someone to go on long walks (rain or shine!), story time, parks, museums, or other fun & enriching experiences, then I would be a wonderful fit for your family!
I have a driver's license & 20 years experience driving with no accidents. I am up-to-date on all vaccinations (they were all done in 2019), & I am covid-cautious to make sure your little one stays safe. I have had multiple CPR trainings (last one in 2019) & I would be happy to have a refresher course if that is something you would like! I am currently waiting on my medicare card to complete the WWCC.
Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have!
