Hello! A little about me: Growing up in Oregon, I helped raise my 4 siblings which taught me a lot of patience and helped develop my nurturing instincts. Also being raised without a TV helped me develop endless creative projects for my siblings. I even taught them how to read before preschool! Over the past 15 years I've been a part time nanny for several families, and I adore working with children! Every day is a new opportunity to teach, inspire and help them develop empathy for others. I think that each generation is more and more inundated with devices, so I try to keep tv and video games etc. to a minimum. I help kids enjoy exploring outside, reading, art projects and learning how to communicate their thoughts and feelings in a healthy way. I also have first hand experience working with neurodivergent and non-verbal children and am compassionate toward all temperaments and ages.
Tacey has been watching our three children for over a year now, and we couldn't be luckier to have her. She is incredibly patient, kind, and deeply interactive - always right there on the floor playing with the kids. Our children absolutely adore her! On top of being amazing with the kids, she is wonderful about following our family routines and always leaves our home tidy and clean. She is trustworthy, reliable, and a wonderful addition to our lives.
