Hello! I'm a child care provider and former preschool teacher with an educational background in visual art, a passion for creativity and storytelling, and a huge love of working with and spending time with children. My core MO with kids is engagement; I like to be active, responsive, attentive and a good listener. I set boundaries around safety and respecting ourselves and others, and like to collaborate with the children on the rest. I support exploring, learning and having big feelings. I love being active and imaginative with kids, doing almost any activity you can dream up! I love to read, talk, and sing to my littlest friends, and play games and bake with my older friends, and go on outings and have adventures with kiddos of all ages, from 11 weeks to 11 years. I just finished up a summer position caring for a spectacular 9mo old baby and am open to a new adventure. Currently looking for 27-40 hours weekly. Please message me for more info!
Sway was our nanny for several months starting when my son was 3 months old. She was loving, attentive, professional and a joy to have in our home. She was always very engaged with our son and went out of her way to make sure he was getting lots of stimulation through walks and baby-centered activities. We’d recommend Sway to any parent who is looking for a vibrant caregiver for their child!
