About Denis

I am a dedicated, childcare professional with over 22 years of combined experience: 15 years as a classroom preschool teacher and over 7 years as a private household nanny. This dual background allows me to bring the structured, educational expertise of a classroom right into your home, while offering the deeply attentive, personalized care your family deserves. My childcare philosophy centers on respectful care, structured routines, and intentional, screen-free engagement. Because of my teacher background. I look at daily routines as opportunities for milestones tracking, emotional regulation, and play-based learning. I am highly experienced in establishing and maintaining predictable, healthy schedules for sleep, naps, and nutrition, which gives children a strong sense of emotional security. I also specialize in guiding toddlers through big transitions (like starting school or welcoming a new sibling) using positive discipline and emotional validation. CPR/First Aid trained
