I am a passionate, reliable, organized mother of four with excellent time management skill. I have gained a variety of experiences, professionally for over 12 years now and more including personally. I am self motivated and enthusiastic with an abundance of love for helping children grow. I understand the importance communication and consistency with and for both parents as well as their children. I stand firmly in my beliefs that children are simply tiny humans deserving of respect and compassion. I use a Montessori approach with children while understanding each child's individual needs are different and must be met according. I love spending time outdoors and exploring new places. I engage with all children on their level and enjoy going on field trips while still appreciating the need for calmer days spent at home using everyday surroundings as learning tools. If you are looking for a nanny with a bubbly Read more positive personality, who will continually, work with your child(ren) on learning new skills, create fun safe activities to encourage play through curiosity, and who will protect and love any child as if they are my own, then look no further! I can't wait to hear from you and get to find out how cool you kid(s) are!
