Hi! I'm Paxton, a fun-loving, energetic nanny with 9 years of experience who believes children are the coauthors of their own education. I'm firm but kind, setting clear expectations that encourage routine, independence, and curiosity. Fluent in Spanish and conversational in German and Italian, I'm also a Spanish tutor who loves turning language learning into an adventure! I've worked as a homeschool teacher, assistant preschool teacher, and camp director, supporting kids of all ages and abilities. I'm committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, helping children and families of all structures thrive. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, teaching yoga (certified instructor), rock climbing, soccer, volleyball, crafts, and outdoor adventures-all activities I love sharing with kids! Qualifications: BA in Spanish (Hampshire College) • CPR/First Aid Certified • Clean driving record & reliable vehicle • Up-to-date vaccines • Comfortable with pets • Non-smoker • Excellent references
Paxton is awesome! He was my elementary-age daughter's summer camp counselor for two summers in a row. He connects well with every child, and creates and leads creative, engaging, and fun group activities in an inclusive way. He managed the daily drop-offs, pickups, and little reports for each kid thoroughly and with a sense of humor. Paxton manages the kids well and makes learning fun. He always speaks kindly and genuinely respects the children, while providing excellent care and engaging activities. Highly recommend!
