About Tess

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have spent more than 4 years as a teacher in a daycare setting and just over 4 years as a private nanny . I've spent much of my time caring for infants and toddlers, but I love working with older children as well. Kindness is key. Here are some things I focus on while nannying: -Establishing and maintaining a schedule -Large and fine motor skills -Good sleep practices -Learning without fear -Emotional regulation and understanding -Individual and group play.

As a work from home mom also balancing caring for a baby, Tess was a life saver! She helped out for half days with my son so I could get some work done or run errands. My son and I loved her! She is like a real life Mrs. Rachel! It shows that she loves working with littles and has the experience. She would sing, read and set up different activities with his toys to keep him entertained. We would have loved to continue working with Ms. Tess but our families work circumstances changed. 10/10 recommend
