About Annika

I have been working with kids for more than a 15 years. Whether it it's babysitting, nannying, directing or teaching, I've done it. I most recently worked for 5 years as a nanny for a family in California. With them, I supervised online Covid-era schooling, led activities, arts and crafts, along with cooking lessons. The children I worked with were neurodivergent, and I have worked in groups and one on one with students with learning difficulties. I have a background in Waldorf education, attending k-12, and teaching kindergarten. I am a skilled tutor of language arts, grammar, humanities, both creative and academic writing, and I have tutored k-4 grade math. I am a theater artist and I have experience teaching, directing and coaching children of groups, in plays, acting and drama games. As a caregiver, I will encourage children to explore the world through play and experience while giving them the necessary boundaries for safety and appropriate behavior.
