Hello, my name is Erika and I am 27 years old. I have been working as a full time nanny for 9 years and have worked with multiple families with babies as young as newborn - 12 year old children. I love to sing, study languages, study child development psychology, and rock climb. I am self studying the Montessori method and gentle parenting and secure attachment methods.

I finished a short course on Developmental Psychology, and love learning about the Montessori method and gentle parenting. I'm currently learning ASL and Mandarin, and I speak conversational German. I've been babysitting since I was 14, and more professionally as an adult from age 18. I've taken care of many different kids from newborn - 12 years old. Most recently with my nieces who are now 2 years old and 2 months old who I have helped take care of since they were born. I worked with a family with 4 kids aged 7 years - 12 years old. Before the pandemic in 2019, I spent 3 months in Taiwan living with a family and taking care of a 3 month old baby. In 2018 to 2019 I worked with a family with 3 kids aged 4 months, 2 years, and 4 years old. During that time I also took care of other young babies aged 3 months - 7 months in a volunteer care group and also as a nanny. In 2014 I spent a year in Germany as an aupair and took care of two kids who were 2 years old and 7 years old. I have experience taking care of many different babies and learning how to best take care of them with their different personalities. I had my full CPR training but because of the pandemic it has expired. I'm looking into getting trained again. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions! I look forward to hearing from you!
