Meet Tessa

Hi! I'm a fun-loving, kind, patient nanny who specializes in infant and toddler care. I have 5 years of experience in providing excellent childcare, 3.5 years as a nanny and 1.5 years as a teacher in the classroom. I can speak and teach fluent English, conversational French, and basic American Sign Language/baby sign language. My current position keeps me busy during the week, but feel free to reach out for occasional weekend care! I'm a firm believer in taking children outside every day and love incorporating story time, dance, and music into my everyday nannying routine. I have a number of early childhood education certificates and use a baby-led/Montessori learning style. My experience extends from infants to school-aged children/teenagers. I am vaccinated against COVID-19 and the flu. I am dedicated and flexible, willing to help with other tasks if requested. I do require on-the-books payments for any regular positions, 20+ Read more hours a week.

Tessa is an amazing nanny! She started working with us when our baby was 4 months old. She has done a fantastic job nurturing her development, with a lot of different exercises to practice head control, sitting, reaching, and then a lot of outside time to explore nature! We were so lucky to find her.
