Hi! I have 12 years of experience as a nanny, and I spent 1 extremely rewarding year as a substitute paraeducator. My degree is in Media Arts and Animation, and my experience with art and my passion for cultivating creativity in children shows when I break out the arts & crafts. Every child under my care receives unconditional love as if they were my own. I understand that adaptability, along with constant learning and growth, are imperative in this role as no two children's needs are identical. I tailor the way I teach, nurture, and show love to each child. I've researched child development for more hours than I am willing to admit, and because of that, I incorporate music, dance, exercise, cooking, and baking as learning tools and ways to help their brains grow and develop. I am also happy to help with starter foods and baby-led weaning, getting organized and on a set schedule. Lets chat for more!

    Ever since we've begun communications with Heather in hopes to find a loving caregiver for our daughter, she has been so wonderful. She was such a pleasure over the initial phone screen and email communication. We then invited her to an on-site interview to meet with our daughter, and she brought a specially-crafted developmental toy/project for our daughter with her! It was so touching and meant a lot that she took the time to research more about our daughter's condition. Heather was extremely punctual and arrived early for the interview. Not only is Heather a kind, sweet, caring person, she is passionate about caring for others and brings a depth of knowledge and creativity with her. We are in hopes to have Heather come work with our daughter next week to see if it could be a long-term fit. So far, Heather has been so reliable, knowledgeable, and extremely communicative ever since we engaged in conversations with her. She is a genuinely sweet person; blessed to have met her :-).
