About Astoria
Experience: 9 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I enjoy encouraging children's growth and development. I have over 8 years of childcare experience, much of which has been caring for infants and toddlers. I have worked with individual families and as a classroom aide at a Montessori school. I live a fun, active, and healthy lifestyle. I love to get kids outside for nature walks, practicing awareness, creative games, and imaginative play! I am CPR-trained and currently working on my recertification. Please read my reviews and reach out if you think I might be a good fit to support your family. I'm looking to provide full-time care starting in June 2023. My schedule will be flexible, and I am available for 25 to 40 hours weekly. If desired, I'm able to start part-time care in May. I'm also available for date-night care! Thank you!

Words cannot start to describe what a gift Astoria was to our family. She nannied for our 3 children for 6 months to bridge a childcare gap we had. Our children absolutely adored having Astoria as part of our family during this time. Her calm demeanor is contagious, and we never once doubted her ability to handle any challenging situation that could arise. She kept the children happy, healthy, and busy, always spending and valuing time outdoors. I’d hire her again in a heartbeat.
