I am a fun, adaptable, compassionate, nurturing, and intuitive 36 year old woman who truly lights up when she is around children. I find my most intuitive and fully embodied self is met when I am with children. There is something within me that wishes to guide them while helping their nervous systems to remain in a place that allows them to learn and love and grow, while becoming strong in their most authentic selves. I truly do see each child as a distinct are rare jewel, and find it an honour to be so close to beings in such rawness and distinction. I do my very best to let them steep in their own sparkle and magic, so they can take it into their one day grown up live's to wield. I really believe that you cannot force a fruit to ripen, only encourage it's growth by giving it the best environment, and nurturance (is that a word?) possible. Sunshine, rain, a soft ground to land when they are ready to fall. Some things that come to mind when thinking of a growth filled environment are: attention, attunement, acceptance, receptivity, acknowledgment, compassion, insight, patience, laughter, light heartedness, objectivity, respect, and trust. I’m really able to be and provide whatever a child needs most to grow, in each moment, and truly sense how this can differ for each individual. I know that growth only happens when you meet a child where they are at, helping them to be in a place they fully accept and embrace themselves. I meet your child hear in each moment! I love the joy and love I get to experience on a daily basis as a nanny. There is nothing quite like the fresh perspective seen by children. They are fresh air to my heart! One of the reasons I love nannying is also that I get to involve my oodles of hobbies which include Photography, Graphic Design, Dance, Music, Yoga, Meditation, Art's and Crafts, Cooking and Hiking (to name a few). You will undoubtedly get tons of photo's with me as a nanny! (momentsbetween.ca is my website.) I would love to hear from you if I sound like a match for your family!

Hi there! I am a kind, loving, compassionate, empathatic, intuitive and fun nanny with 8 years childcare experience (3 yrs. teacher’s assistant/2 year day care work/4 years nannying).

 Being with young children puts me in touch with the best and most natural parts of myself, and humanity. The suprise, delight, and honesty they bring to my day seems to be unparallel to anything else I undertake. I easily find distinction within each child and love fostering their most authentic selves, allowing them to follow their joy and uniqueness. I am always building them up, helping them to overcome challenges while regulating their nervous systems, and gaining confidence in both small and large endeavours. 

I have experience with children from 7 months (took care of 2 twins this age - till age of 2), up to Gr. 6. I especially love wee babies these days but absolutely see every child as such a gem and I’m honoured to get to know each and everyone one! I hold an anchored space of no drama and compassion and give kids my whole hearted attention when I am with them. Having a passion for personal development and human evolution in general I cannot help but bring all my learnings and genuine fascination into a child's life. I truly believe that the space I provide is one that allows a child to flourish into the fullest expression of themselves, feeling secure, confident, and compassionate towards themselves and others. Also being a practitioner of yoga/meditation I do my best to help kids respond vs. react, love themselves, and find calm within. 

I love feeling a part of a close knit family, with open communication and easy going nature’s. If I sound like a good fit for your family I would love to hear from you!

I have gone to School for Art and Design, Specializing in Photography. I have also taken courses in Graphic Design.
