I’m an energetic nanny with a background in childcare and eldercare. My experience includes educating and entertaining children, cooking, cleaning, and running errands. I like to incorporate stimulating activities into daily routines to promote healthy mental and social development. I have worked in childcare and eldercare in various capacities on and off for the past 15 years and have found it incredibly rewarding. I have experience working with children of all ages, both in a one on one environment, as well as supervising large groups as a teacher’s assistant for ballet and visual arts classes. In my previous nanny positions my duties included bathing, dressing, and managing the children’s daily activities as well as cooking healthy meals, running errands, and housework. I’ve had a lifelong passion for the arts and enjoy exploring creative and educational activities with children in fun ways. In my previous jobs I would often create visual arts projects, play the ukulele for sing-a-longs, and do science experiments with the kids.
