About Gianina

Hello! I'm Nina, I approach childcare with patience and compassion, fostering curiosity, creativity, play, and adventure in a calm and attentive environment. For the last two years, I was a senior head instructor for a mental and behavioral health outdoor-based program serving kids ages 11-17. I spent years watching my neighbors and family members' children, ranging from infants to young adults, worked in a church nursery, and taught at an English language learning camp in South Korea for 9-11-year-olds. Additionally, I spent three months as a nanny for children aged 8, 10, and 13 in New Zealand. I am a licensed multi-day river guide and backpacking guide, certified as a Wilderness First Responder, which gives me ample training to respond to medical emergencies in remote locations. This includes CPR and Epi-pen administration training. I have experience working with behavioral and emotional disorders, as well as kids on the autism spectrum.
