Profile

Warm, responsible and experienced nanny with more than 6 years of childcare experience, especially with children between 1 and 5 years old. Passionate about respectful education, emotional development and creating a safe, calm and stimulating environment for children.

I have worked with children in different family settings and also as an au pair caring for babies and toddlers. My approach to childcare is strongly influenced by the values of Montessori and Waldorf education: encouraging autonomy, creativity, emotional security and learning through daily life and play.

Education has always been very important to me. I attended a Waldorf school, which gave me a deep appreciation for child-centred learning, imagination, rhythm, nature and respectful communication with children.
