As a semi-retired nurse with a diverse background in both caregiving and education, I bring a unique blend of creativity, experience, and stability to the families I work with. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching art to children, where I nurtured their creativity and encouraged self-expression through hands-on projects. I’ve also taught English to students in China, giving me experience working with children from different cultures and helping them grow through engaging, educational activities. Having traveled abroad, I bring a wide perspective on life and a sense of adventure that I love to share with the kids I care for. I believe in making every moment fun and engaging, whether through art, games, or storytelling, while still maintaining clear boundaries to create a safe and structured environment. Alongside my teaching and nursing experience, I’ve written and illustrated books, a passion I love incorporating into my time with Read more children to inspire their own creativity and imagination. My goal is to make every day an exciting learning opportunity, where kids feel both supported and empowered to explore new ideas. While I’m all about having fun and making lasting memories, I also understand the importance of stability and boundaries. I work closely with parents to ensure we’re on the same page, respecting household rules and aligning with your parenting style. Open communication is key, and I’m always available to provide updates on how your child’s day went, ensuring you feel connected and informed. I look forward to creating fun, engaging, and meaningful experiences with your children, where they can feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. Whether through art, play, or storytelling, I’m dedicated to bringing out the best in every child while making sure they enjoy their time in my care
