Caring, energetic, and responsible, I truly enjoy spending time with children and creating days that feel both meaningful and fun. I love outdoor activities, walks, crafts, learning new skills, and even cooking together, with a focus on keeping children engaged rather than relying on screen time. I want every child in my care to feel comfortable, understood, and excited about our time together. As an older sister, caring for younger children has long been a natural part of my life. I bring patience, affection, and a calm approach, while also valuing clear boundaries, respect, and consistency. With 2 years of childcare experience, I’m comfortable working with children ages 3 and up, including children with disabilities, and I can care for larger families as well. I am seeking a full-time live-in nanny position in Halifax starting in September 2026. I’m available seven days a week with a very flexible schedule, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and overnight care when needed. I can also help with cooking, preparing meals for kids, light housekeeping, children’s laundry, ironing children’s clothing, and grocery shopping. CPR and First Aid trained, I look forward to building a positive and trusting relationship with both children and parents. I have around 2 years of childcare experience, including working in a French childcare/summer camp setting and caring for younger children. I have experience supervising multiple children at once, planning fun and educational activities, outdoor play, helping with meals and daily routines, maintaining a safe environment, and handling behavioural challenges with patience and clear boundaries. I focus on keeping children active and engaged rather than relying on screen time. I enjoy creating activities based on each child’s age, interests, energy level, and mood. I also have hands-on experience caring for my younger siblings, which has given me additional experience with children of different ages and everyday routines. One of my strengths is building positive relationships with children while still maintaining structure, respect, and consistency. I want children in my care to feel safe, understood, and excited about the time we spend together.

I'm a responsible and nurturing childcare provider with experience caring for children of all ages—from toddlers to school-aged kids. For the past year, I've been a dedicated nanny for two wonderful boys, helping with homework, school pickups, meal prep, and creating fun learning activities. I also have professional experience as a substitute teacher at a daycare, where I helped little ones reach developmental milestones while maintaining a safe, engaging environment. When I'm not working with kids, you can find me cooking new recipes, staying active outdoors, or curled up with a good book. I believe these hobbies help me bring creativity, energy, and patience to childcare. What sets me apart is my educational background in psychology—I understand child development and use that knowledge to create activities that are both fun and beneficial. Parents appreciate my reliability, clear communication, and ability to adapt to each family's unique needs. Most of all, I genuinely love helping children learn and grow, and I take pride in being someone parents can trust completely. For the past year, I've been the go-to caregiver for two energetic school-aged boys, managing their full after-school routine. This means picking them up from school, helping power through homework (especially making reading and math engaging), and preparing meals for them. I've learned how to balance structure with fun - whether it's turning spelling practice into games or finding creative ways to motivate them when they're tired after a long school day. My professional experience as a substitute teacher at A Tiny Lab daycare gave me hands-on practice with younger children (toddlers to preschoolers). There, I managed classroom activities, helped with developmental milestones, and became skilled at handling those inevitable toddler meltdowns with patience and redirection. The daycare environment also taught me the importance of maintaining strict safety standards while still allowing kids to explore and learn. Between my nannying and teaching experience, I've developed a childcare style that's both nurturing and structured. I believe in clear communication with parents, following their preferred routines and parenting approaches. What I love most is watching children grow more confident - whether it's seeing a shy toddler make their first friend or helping a school-aged child finally conquer a subject they've been struggling with. Every child has their own unique way of learning, and I take pride in figuring out what works best for each individual.
