Hi, parents and guardians! I am an early childhood educator and career nanny who lives on the West Side of Buffalo. I am in the very early stages of becoming a Newborn Care Specialist, so I am seeking full-time employment with nanny industry standards. I have 13 years experience in childcare. It is truly my passion and life-calling. I have a Bachelor of Arts in English with a minor in Child Psychology and Spanish and a Master of Fine Arts in Children's Literature and Young Adult Writing. I am trained and certified in SIDS, Infant Brain Development, First Aid, and CPR (infants, children, & adults) amongst other certifications. I am also certified in the LifeWays model of Waldorf education philosophy. I am incredibly nurturing, fun, careful, and prompt. I think clearly and have the ability to remain calm during a hectic situation. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you!

Nikki is a superstar and any family should be considered lucky to have a caregiver as kind and attentive as Nikki is. She was constantly engaging with our daughter during play time, attentive to our daughter's needs through the highs and lows, and was a dream to work with as first-time parents. If we could've given her a ten star rating, we definitely would have!
