About Teresa

Experience: 13 yrs

Hi there, I'm Teresa - your friendly neighborhood nanny with a B. A. in Psychology & 10+ years of childcare experience from newborns to pre-teens. My childcare approach emphasizes Social Emotional Learning, Cognitive Behavioral frameworks, and strong language development. I enjoy engaging children in imaginary play, music, art projects, reading, organized activities, problem solving, and overall, helping infants/children reach new milestones. I am truly passionate about childcare and I place a lot of love and care into the work that I do. I understand the importance of being punctual, reliable, organized, & communicative. Furthermore, I value the strong, personal connections that can be built with children & families overtime, As a caregiver, I provide attentive, nurturing & informed care that encompasses your goals & parenting philosophies for your child(ren) with intention. If this sounds like a good fit, I'd love to hear from you!

My toddler absolutely loves Teresa! Teresa has been watching her since she was a newborn. Teresa takes the time to know my child's likes and interests, along with my child's stage of development and engages her at that level. I appreciate Teresa's communication and inquiries of any routines that our family follows (eg., nap time). We really love Teresa and can't say enough positive things about her.
