Hi! I'm a warm, easygoing, playful childcare provider with over 15 years of experience as a nanny and behavioral therapist, including supporting children with autism. I'm also a mom of two older boys! I've always loved kids' curiosity, imagination, and wonderfully unique personalities. I bring a calm, patient presence, but also plenty of silliness, laughter, and creativity! I love getting down on their level and making everyday moments fun. My top strengths are building trust, tuning into children's emotional needs, and creating a safe space where they can be themselves. Outside of work, I'm a singer and musician in a local band. I love nature, time with family, and my dogs! I'm seeking a nanny position, ideally 30-35 hours a week, with a family who values kindness, communication, and a playful, nurturing approach. I'd love to meet you!
Ivy is a true gem! She’s been part of our family for years, from caring for my children as little ones to supporting us through the newborn and teenage years, and now as a parenting coach. She is deeply loving, patient, attentive, and fun, with a rare ability to connect beyond the surface and understand children's deeper emotional needs. She makes them feel safe, seen, valued, and loved. We honestly don't know what we'd do without her. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her!
