• Comfortable with pets

From the time I was a child myself, I have been involved with childcare in some way. My grandma had a home daycare and some of my earliest memories are practicing my new skill of reading with a baby on my lap. When I went to college, I was certain that I wanted to pursue a career working with young children. I started out in early childhood education, but eventually chose social work. Upon graduation, I spent a few years working for a program tailored to families with young children (0-3 years old), learning all sorts of fascinating things about early brain development, bonding and attachment, and effective, positive discipline. When a few of my friends had babies around the same time and I left social work to provide a nanny-share for them. Eventually this grew and evolved into a home daycare called Wee Sprouts, which I owned and operated Read more for a few years before taking some time to travel. I have been nanny for my current family for the past two years and (will still be working for them Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays). Caring for children is more than a job to me; it is a way of being that is marked with respect, trust, and curiosity.

Trust & safety
