Summary
I have 3 years of experience as an au pair and 2 years as a nanny, caring for children ranging from 6 months to 13 years old. I’m very passionate about working with kids and always make their safety and well-being my top priority. I love creating a caring, supportive, and fun environment for them to grow and feel comfortable. I’m also very familiar with story times at local libraries, playgrounds, and museums around the Boston and cambridge areas. I’m currently looking for a full-time position for the summer and would be open to a part-time role in the fall.
