I love and appreciate children! I have been nannying for over 18 years and have worked with all age groups. I encourage kids to "get off the couch" (unless we are building forts or intentionally relaxing), take kids outside, explore nature and the neighborhood, play games, work on art, read, help with homework, help children grow (with education and life lessons that are age appropriate), be attentive to children's basic needs, incorporate music and creativity, and help kids be more responsible and independent. That often includes letting the child lead in their exploration and curiosity. As well, I find it important to help kids work on healthy communication, critical thinking, compassion, and emotional intelligence. I am very responsible, clear on boundaries, kind, patient, fun and tidy. My experience has also been proven in my many years substitute teaching, teaching dance and tutoring. To let you know in advance, I am vegan and don't cook meat, though I can heat it up. Thanks!

Ash is a gem! Always on-time, and an open communicator, she embodies professionalism in every way. What truly sets her apart in our opinion though is her dedication to our son's development. Under Ash's care, our son has flourished in ways we couldn't have imagined. Her patience, creativity, and genuine passion for nurturing his young mind has been instrumental in his growth and development. We are forever grateful to Ash's commitment to our son's well-being and growth. Before this, I had no idea what to expect as I've never hired a nanny before. However, Ash is not just a nanny; she's our son's best friend, and an invaluable part of our family. Thank you, Ash, for your exceptional care, patience, kindness, and professionalism. Thank you for always taking our son on new adventures, and for teaching him sign language to communicate with us. You've made a profound difference in our lives, and we couldn't be more thankful to have had you with us on this journey.
