Experience: 10 yrs
I am passionate about creating the perfect safe space for growth, exploration and learning for children of all ages! In my 7 years of experience as a teacher and caregiver, I have nannied for 5 different families, guiding children in their growth, learning and personal development and gaining amazing relationships in the process. In 2016, I held substitute and assistant teacher positions at two preschools, while bringing creative energy into my daily lessons through songs, dance, art, yoga and mindfulness techniques. Courses in child psychology and language development led to my position as a lab assistant in a children's psycho-linguistics center where my efforts helped children with language delays. I truly love finding creative ways to help children strive developmentally, and emotionally, while helping them explore their many curiosities! As a caregiver I am honored to be part of your child's journey!
We hired Carly to care for our 2-month old daughter. She was punctual and communicative, and very thoughtful with her questions. Our daughter took to her right away and she was clearly comfortable with an infant. We will definitely look to Carly for future babysitting needs, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to other families.
