Summary

I discovered my passion for childcare at age 18, which has grown into more than 20 years of dedicated experience in child development and education. I began with formal studies and hands-on work at a local nursery school, building a strong foundation in early childhood care. Over the years, I have supported children of various ages, guiding them through key developmental milestones while fostering their growth, curiosity, and well-being. My commitment has always centered on delivering high-quality care that brings satisfaction and peace of mind to families.

Around a decade ago, I transitioned from nannying to teaching to broaden my impact. Drawing on my extensive practical experience, I create engaging, nurturing learning environments that inspire children to explore and thrive. Working with families from diverse international backgrounds has strengthened my cultural competency and adaptability. I am fluent in French, which has been particularly valuable during my significant time living in Paris and provincial France, as well as in the USA, China, and the UK.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated integrity, reliability, and a genuine love for working with children. I am deeply passionate about inspiring and educating the next generation, and I bring warmth, professionalism, and dedication to every role I take on.
