Hi there! I'm a grad student looking for a summer gig. Helping and working with people has been my deepest passion for as long as I can remember. I've always cared deeply about the well being of everyone I meet and believe this ability to bond with others is the reason I am especially great with children. Before moving to Richmond for college, I nannied for a family of 4 young kiddos (8 months, 2, 4, 6) for 3 years. In addition to the nanny gig, I worked at a martial arts studio that provided an after-school and summer-camp program for elementary school aged children from 4-13. This position taught me how to supervise, entertain, teach, and engage kids of all different backgrounds, personalities, and capabilities in a plethora of activities and situations. Since coming to Richmond, I have babysat, nannied, and tutored several kids in the area and I Read more have wonderful relationships with each family. I pride myself in being creative and like to keep electronics/screen time to a minimum, I'm a huge believer in 'kids should be kids'. Crafts, games, and outdoor activities are my specialty! Aside from knowing your children are in great hands, you'll also have the satisfaction of knowing they're having good wholesome fun. If you're looking for a high spirited and reliable caregiver, I'm your gal!
