Experience: I've been a career nanny and family assistant for 13 years, 5 families, 13 kiddos, 6 dogs, and 2 hairless cats!

Interests and hobbies:My passions are cooking, entertaining, traveling and being close to nature in any way possible.

Describe your childcare style:13 children later and I’ve tried my best to listen to and make each one feel important and special. The relationships I’ve had with each of them naturally start to feel like I’m just their older sister and part of the family. This has continued past the time that I’m working and they have now become extensions of my own family.

What activities do you like to do with children:I love being outdoors and going on adventures. Anything from biking, hiking, nature walks, swimming, picnicking, and playing games to reading books, crafts, and movie time during quieter times.

Why are you interested in working as a Nanny or Babysitter? My career as a nanny has taken me on many wonderful adventures. I've been able to travel to exciting places and see beautiful parts of the world. But most importantly, I've been invited into families and given the opportunity to influence and be influenced by each and every person that I meet on this journey.

What qualities are important in a Nanny or Babysitter?I’ve always felt comfortable as a leader. When I was younger that showed when I would always end up as the “Mother” or “Teacher” during playtime. Now as a nanny it’s given me an easy confidence in the role as decision maker when parents cannot be there. Also, Multi-tasking is a natural ability I possess. I’m able to juggle many things at once and wear hats of many types. This is a necessity when dealing with the ever-changing dynamics of family life. Finally, I have a keen sense of intuition combined with a pitch-in attitude. These together are important qualities to have when there isn’t always time to sit down and hash out a plan. Sometimes you have to just think on your feet and make it happen!
