About Nikki
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
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 12 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 well educated and has years of experience working with and teaching young children. Together, we co-taught a class of 10 toddlers, age 18 months to 3 years until the pandemic shut us down. Nikki was always wonderful and patient with the children and they loved her as much as she loved them.
