I’m a warm, creative and experienced professional nanny based in Kitchener with 15 years of professional childcare experience and a lifelong passion for working with children.
As the second oldest of six children, caring for little ones started long before it became my career! Since then, I’ve worked with children from newborns through school age and beyond, giving me extensive experience with different ages, personalities, developmental stages, routines and family dynamics.
Experienced Care for All Kinds of Families
My experience extends across many types of professional childcare. I provide private nanny care, occasional childcare, date-night care, hotel childcare, wedding and event childcare, and short- or long-term family care.
Whether I’m becoming a familiar part of a family’s regular routine, caring for children while their parents attend a wedding, or helping a visiting family enjoy their time in Kitchener-Waterloo, I bring the same level of professionalism and attention to every booking.
Childcare That’s Actually Fun! ✨
I believe excellent childcare is about much more than simply supervising children. Kids deserve a caregiver who is present, engaged and genuinely interested in spending time with them.
I love incorporating creativity, imaginative play, outdoor adventures, crafts, games and age-appropriate learning into our time together. Education is important to me, so learning often happens naturally through play, conversation and everyday experiences.
I’m also experienced with the practical aspects of caring for children, including meal and snack preparation, bathing and dressing, bedtime routines, homework support, outings, children’s organization and maintaining their routines.
Most importantly, I take the time to build meaningful connections. I want children to feel comfortable and excited when they know Andy is coming—and I want parents to feel completely confident leaving their children in my care.
Professional, Adaptable & Safety Focused
Every family is different, and I respect that. I’m comfortable following established routines, parenting preferences, dietary requirements, household rules and individual instructions.
Safety is always a priority. I am CPR and First Aid certified, have completed a police background check, hold a valid driver’s licence, am a non-smoker and am legally permitted to work in Canada.
I’m experienced caring for individual children, siblings and larger families, with a preferred maximum of four children in my care.
