About Athena

Hi, I'm Athena! I love spending time in nature, being around animals, getting creative with crafts, and finding joy in life's little moments. I believe childhood is such a magical time, and I strive to create a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, loved, and encouraged to grow. I have experience caring for children from infancy through older ages, both as a nanny for families of all sizes and as a lead infant and toddler teacher. I also have an Associate's degree in Early Childhood Development from SUNY Erie and am currently pursuing my Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education. I feel incredibly grateful to be part of such a special chapter in a family's life. I'd describe my personality as thoughtful/ caring, open minded, and optimistic. My skills include patience and nurturing care, creative learning and play, and social emotional learning.
