About Akou

Experience: 7 yrs

Hello! With seven years of experience as a nursery caregiver, nanny, babysitter, and respite care worker, I have had the privilege of working with children of all ages and backgrounds, from newborns to young adults, including children on the autism spectrum, neurodivergent individuals, and those with other special needs. My background in speech, language, and hearing science further enhances my ability to support children with speech and language disorders while fostering communication, growth, and confidence. I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment tailored to each child's unique needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, a non-smoker, and hold a college degree. I also have reliable transportation and am comfortable working in homes with pets. I would love the opportunity to support your family and create a positive, caring environment where your child can feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow.

Josephine was our nanny over the summer and she brought peace of mind when watching our son. She is responsible, communicative, and such a joy to have.
