About Hannah

Experience: 5 yrs

3 words to describe me: caring, thoughtful & whimsical! I like working with kids because they are constantly learning & growing. It's rewarding to provide a safe place for kids to be themselves, grow confidence, & be curious. I've worked with kids since I was a tween helping out the neighbors. Later I was a babysitter & swim instructor. Last summer, I worked as an outdoor educator with NatureBridge. Now I'm a TK paraeducator & afterschool volunteer for a science program. In my spare time, I like to do crafts & play board/card games! One thing you should know about me is that I take a restorative justice approach to conflict. When kids face challenges, I encourage them to talk it out & find empathy. Every kid is different, but we all want to be understood, so I take the time to do so. My strengths include CPR & first aid, emotional intelligence, & a background in biology--particularly aquatic ecosystems.

I cannot recommend Hannah highly enough. She cared for my son from infancy and quickly became someone our family trusted completely. Hannah is reliable, professional, and dependable. She balances warmth with structure, is playful and engaging, and genuinely enjoys spending time with children while maintaining routines and appropriate boundaries in a kind, respectful way. What impressed me most was the positive impact she had on my son’s development. She encouraged his learning, expanded his vocabulary, introduced new words, and supported his early writing skills. It was clear she cared about his growth, not just his supervision. Any parent would be fortunate to have Hannah care for their child. She brings patience, kindness, professionalism, and a true passion for working with children. I recommend her without hesitation.
