Tatjana, tata a Zürich

ABOUT ME
My name is Tatjana. I am a warm, reliable, and experienced childcare professional based in Zürich, with a strong educational background and many years of hands-on experience working with children in Switzerland. I hold a Montessori Group Leader Certificate and follow a respectful, child-centered approach that supports independence, emotional security, and natural curiosity.
I am also a mother of two sons, raised in Zürich, which has given me deep, practical insight into children’s needs at different developmental stages while successfully combining family life with part-time professional work.
WHAT KIND OF CHILDCARE I AM LOOKING FOR
I am looking for a nanny position where I can offer attentive, structured, and heart-centered care. I am open to part-time or full-time work and value long-term, trusting cooperation with families who appreciate clear communication, reliability, and a calm, supportive environment for their children.

MY QUALITIES AS A NANNY
Patient, calm, and emotionally intuitive

Highly responsible and reliable

Warm, caring, and respectful

Able to set clear, gentle boundaries

Flexible and attentive to each child’s individual rhythm

Children feel safe, understood, and encouraged with me

MY EXPERIENCE

Montessori Group Leader Certificate

5 years as a child animator, creating and leading children’s birthday parties, themed events, creative workshops, games, and group activities

3 years as a school assistant in Zürich schools, supporting children in classrooms, group settings, and daily school routines
Extensive experience assisting and supervising children’s groups in forest and wild nature settings
Many years of hands-on parenting experience raising my own two children in Zürich

NATURE & OUTDOOR FOCUS
I place great importance on nature integration in daily childcare. I believe that regular time outdoors supports children’s physical health, emotional balance, creativity, and self-confidence. I have experience accompanying children and groups in forests and natural environments, encouraging exploration, free play, observation of nature, and respectful interaction with the natural world.

ACTIVITIES I OFFER

Montessori-inspired, age-appropriate learning activities

Creative play (arts & crafts, imagination, role play)

Outdoor activities, forest walks, and nature exploration

Movement, coordination, and free play

Reading, storytelling, and language development

Calm routines, emotional support, and mindful transitions

MY APPROACH
My goal is to create a safe, joyful, and nurturing environment where children feel seen, confident, and free to grow at their own pace — both indoors and outdoors.

I would be happy to get to know your family and discuss how I can support your children’s daily life and development.

Warm regards,
Tatjana
