About Ava
Experience: 6 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Ava and I am an experienced teacher and childcare worker living in the Western Mass area. I hold a Bachelors degree in Music Education from SUNY Fredonia and a Master's Degree from UMass Amherst in Voice Performance. In my professional experience with teaching, nannying and daycare/after school care, I have regularly worked with children of all ages and mental capacities. I nannied for three years as a Summer full-time nanny for three children. Along with my experience in K-12 education, I have experience in early childhood music education as a preschool music teacher and in daycare work as well. I worked as a daycare teacher for an infant classroom where my co-teacher and I cared for 8 infants on a daily bases (4 infants to 1 adult ratio) while also facilitating and recording their development. I love children and caring for them. I find that it is one of the most gratifying and rewarding things one can do in life!

I can't say enough great things about Ava! She was our nanny of 3 kids for a long time and if you're able to hire her you should consider yourself very fortunate. She is calm and super creative, can handle anything that comes up and will simply give you peace of mind. Ava was a fantastic caregiver to our three children and the kids still ask about her!
