Career Nanny with 25+ years early childhood experience. MA EEC Certified Preschool teacher. Parenting educator. *Fully vaccinated, Tdap, Flu, COVID. Ideally I’m looking for a long term Nanny position with a newborn. I delight in the wonder and excitement that children naturally have. I believe in nurturing and helping little ones grow and learn in a loving and caring environment. One that supports their individual needs and allows them to build on their confidence and self-esteem. To broaden my knowledge, I’ve also worked as an assistant at an in home family daycare, taught Parent/Child Toddler Play and Learn classes, worked as a parent educator, and later taught Preschool. I’m continually attending early childhood development trainings. I believe in the power of play. I encourage peer social relationships and offer experiences that spark curiosity and invite active exploration. I'm not afraid to break out in song, or engage in simple child's Read more play. Play turns out to be so stunningly essential to childhood, it's like love, sunshine, and broccoli all juiced together. I also have a natural sense of humor, which is essential when working with children. I enjoy sharing resources and tips that I have learned along the way with parents I pledge to let children be little, fill their hearts with laughter, help them grow wings, nurture their sense of wonder, and inspire them to believe in themselves. I keep in touch with the many children and families who have crossed paths with me over my varied career, and we catch up now and then. I'm proud to have been part of their parenting and childhood journey.

Although I did not ultimately hire Nancy due to a conflict with schedules, I would have loved to! We corresponded by email and by phone and she was always prompt to reply and friendly. We did have a meeting to meet my children and I was instantly at ease with her as were my kids (ages 2 and 3 1/2). They responded very positively to her and I think that speaks volumes. I hope that our schedules could work out in the future!!

Nancy is one of the best! She is very energetic, patient,kind and trustworthy. My 2 year old son lights up when she comes over. She always is prepared with fun activities for them to do and play. She really gives 100% to the kids. She is very dependable and easy to work with. I cant say enough good things. Your kids would be lucky to have her!
