About Nicole

I love working with children of all ages. I teach art, handwork, and crafts, and illustrate children's books in my spare time. I love going on adventure hikes, exploring the outdoors, and being in nature. I have nannied for 10 months for 2 little girls. Our daily rhythms included: Picking them up from school, walking a mile home each day, preparing snacks, playing until dinner time; preparing their bath, reading stories, and putting them to bed. I had special crafts prepared for rainy days, as well as field trips to playgrounds, museums, and planetarium, etc. It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed everyday! When their baby brother came along, I helped care for him once he turned 3 months old. I also spent several overnights, while parents were away on business trips and I am very comfortable providing overnight care to families. I have worked as a kindergarten assistant teacher at a Waldorf School, as well as a first grade assistant teacher, and designed numerous outdoor summer camps.
