Childcare Services
I have over 10 years of experience working with children of all ages (birth through high school!) in a variety of settings. I have worked as a nanny, teacher's assistant (for high school and preschool), doula, First Day School teacher, nursery volunteer and dance teacher (for ages 8-18). In my time as a nanny, I have worked with families dedicated to Montessori, Waldorf and other family-centered values and practices in their home. I enjoy many outdoor activities with children of all ages as well as bringing children into rhythms of the home. I enjoy cooking wholesome food for myself and others and have found that so many children really enjoy being given responsibility in food preparation. I have dedicated much time and energy to studying childhood development and family-centered care. I know how important continuity of care and stability of environment is for children and my goal as your childcare provider is to be consistent with your family values and practices.
I have excellent references who would be happy to speak with you. I am CPR and First Aid certified and will pass a background check, should you choose to run one. I live in West Asheville and am open to watching children in my home or your home, if it is in the downtown or west Asheville area. Please be assured that I do not take on childcare jobs while I am on call for births, as I would never risk leaving a family without a childcare provider for the day.
My availability for childcare is weekdays after 1:30pm and alternate weekends (this is dictated by my class schedule). Please consider me for occasional or regular childcare. My rates are fair and flexible, ranging from $8-$15/hour depending on the number of children, ages of children and frequency of need for care.
