About Heather

Experience: 10 yrs

When I moved to the Boston area in 2012, I worked as a nanny for two boys for over a year and a half. When I started with their family, they were 5 and 8 years old. When we parted ways, they were almost ages 7 and 10. I left their family to begin pursuing my passions more fully - writing, theater, and recently a rekindled love for animal care. I still babysit the two boys for the occasional date night, and maintain a great friendship with the family. My responsibilities were primarily to transport the boys to and from school and other activities. I also helped them with morning and evening chores, cooked dinner, assisted with bath time, and filled in on sick days and snow days. During moments of free time, the boys and I loved to play active games - outside whenever possible! - as well as bored games, and puzzles. Besides being a full-time nanny, I've taught dance at an after school program, taught a theater camp, and worked at the Boston Children's Museum. My experience working with kids is very broad. My favorite activity with children is theater, but I love spending any time with kids that gives them a chance to use their boundless energy and think freely with their creative minds.
