About Athena

Experience: 12 yrs

Hello families, I'm Athena! I have 12 years of professional nanny experience, I provide attentive, structured, and nurturing care tailored to each child's unique needs. I specialize in newborn and toddler care, understanding how vital those early years are in establishing routines, developmental milestones, and foundational values. I am hands-on, proactive, and deeply invested in the emotional and educational growth of the children I care for. I'm not simply present -- I'm intentional. I pride myself on being a dependable extension of the family, offering parents peace of mind and seamless support in their home. If you're seeking a dedicated, professional nanny who leads with warmth, discretion, and reliability, I would love to connect!
