About me + My philosophy

Hello and welcome to The Vegan Sitter!

I’m an experienced nanny who adores my time spent working with infants and children. I have a strong personal philosophy that combines elements of “attachment parenting” and my own intuitive beliefs – I pick up babies when they cry, spend as much time outside in nature as possible, and I believe strongly in practicing mindful listening and communicating.

I don’t practice “cry it out” methods when it comes to nap time and bedtime – and I am looking for those who will appreciate my efforts in making babies and children feel secure and loved and able to sleep without stress. I’ve even written a lullaby that kids often request!

I have over 15 years of experience working with children from infants to 10 years old and am CPR certified. I started out as a mother’s helper when I was ten, I was a Jr. camp counselor for the SPCA when I was 16, and I have continued caring for kiddos ever since.

It is part of my process to learn the unique needs, wants, and “what lights up their world” kind of activities of every individual infant or child I care for. Some typical favorite activities include music making & listening, arts & crafts, creating “on the spot interactive” songs and stories, reading books, and lots of outdoor/nature time. Please note that while my clients may or may not all be vegan, I only cook and provide vegan food when it comes to meal time.

If it sounds like we may be a good fit, please do contact me and I will be in touch. I look forward to hearing from you!
