I am a caring and dependable nanny with a lifelong love for children and a background in teaching English online, holding 3 TESOL certificates. As a mother of four and a grandmother of four, nurturing young children has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. For the past three years, I have been working with an international family caring for their young son and supporting his early development in a bilingual home. Watching him grow and learn and gain confidence in speaking English has been one of the most rewarding experiences for me. I believe children thrive in a calm, loving, and consistent environment. I enjoy reading with children, encouraging curiosity, spending time outdoors and supporting their emotional and developmental growth through gentle guidance and everyday conversation. I bring patience, reliability and a warm presence to the families I work with, and I take pride in creating a safe and happy space where children feel secure, loved, and supported. I look forward to becoming a trusted and caring part of your family's life. I have been a child caregiver since I was a young girl. I became a mother at age 21, had 4 children of my own and I am also now a grandmother of 4 . I am currently a nanny for a wonderful, two-year-old boy who brings me so much joy and keeps me active! Sadly my time with him will end this summer as his family plans an undetermined stay in their home country and the child will begin school, so I will be looking for a new family to help. During the time that I was raising my own children I was a volunteer child care educator for our local service club. I would love to be able to help you out with your children too!

I am semi-retired looking to fill some of my time with joy and laughter. I have decided to add this into my retirement plan rather than volunteering for the sake of volunteering. I would have purpose to help a family in need for child care as I can sympathize with them because I never had that when I was raising my own family. An extra hand goes a long way and I can understand the value as a mother myself. I am very punctual, reliable, friendly, fun and my work ethics I take very seriously. I hope to add to your child’s development and make a good impression on their life ahead by being a decent human being. I am Chinese Canadian born and semi retired. I’ve raised my children 2 girls and a boy so I have experience with both genders and all ages. I am now a grandmother of a 3 year old girl that I find joy being with when they visit from Terrace B.C. I just finished looking after a 21 month old boy who was waiting to get into daycare. Previous to that I looked after a 5 year old boy with pick up from school. I also helped with laundry and meal prep from fresh prep. I consider myself very seasoned in the home and with children as I’ve centered my whole life around them. I am very chill, punctual, reliable and fun. I hope to add to your child’s growth and be an integral part of their life. I could only offer being present for them because you are unable to.

I’m a warm, dependable caregiver with 30 years of full-time and part-time nanny and babysitting experience, working primarily with newborns, infants, and toddlers (ages 0–3). Caring for young children has been the heart of my work for many years, and I truly love what I do. I’ve completed coursework in developmental psychology, have some ECE training, and maintain Childcare First Aid/CPR certification. This background helps me support children’s early development while keeping routines calm, safe, and age-appropriate. I’m very comfortable with infant care, sleep routines, feeding, and those tender early stages when consistency and patience matter most. I grew up with three siblings and have raised my own child, which gives me a deep understanding of family life from both a professional and personal perspective. Parents often describe me as “firm but kind, ” and tell me that when their children are with me, they don’t worry. They know their little ones are safe, cared for, and genuinely understood. I live in North Vancouver and enjoy spending time outdoors, especially hiking in the mountains. I bring that same calm, grounded energy into the home. I’m attentive, trustworthy, and respectful of each family’s values, and I aim to create an environment where children feel secure, happy, and well cared for. I’m currently looking for part-time or occasional nanny or babysitting work and would love to support families who are seeking experienced, steady, and nurturing care. - Practicum as a Kindergarten teacher for 1 year - Worked as a full-time and part-time nanny for 30 years for various families - Studied 1 semester of Developmental Psychology - Volunteered as a chaperone for the children's chorus for the Vancouver Opera for 7 years - Raised my own child
