Hello! My name is Nova and I'm so glad you decided to stop by and read my bio! :) I create a nurturing and engaging environment that promotes the well-being and development of young minds. Skilled in organizing educational activities, fostering creativity, and maintaining a safe space for children to thrive. Committed to building strong, positive, and lasting bonds with both the little ones and families I work with. I graduated from Whitney M. Young Magnet High School with all honors while working 2 jobs & caregiving for my great grandmother. I started my childcare journey doing weekly babysitting in high school, became a full time teacher after graduation, and I eventually transitioned into professional nannying. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to connecting :) *I will be out of town the entire month of August (2024) as I help my current nanny family transition with their big move. I am unable to start any full-time work before Sept. 1st*

Nova has been working with our family for the past three years, starting when our daughter was 8 months old. It would be hard to overstate the role she has played in the development of our daughter. She has been like a third parent, collaborating with my husband and me in support of our daughter through so many milestones and transitions. Nova has so many wonderful qualities, talents and skills that she brings to care giving. She is bright, thoughtful, loving, energetic, funny, honest, mindful, loyal, responsible and incredibly trustworthy. We have worked with Nova as a full-time nanny, part-time nanny, babysitter and travel nanny over our time with her and she has excelled in all of them. She is wonderful to work with as parents, and our daughter adores her. She considers her a best friend for life. They have had countless adventures and the best of times together. We give our highest possible recommendation of Nova for any family that is looking childcare.
