"I was born the eldest of four & I've spent over a decade helping little ones thrive — through meltdowns and magic, nap times and nature walks, always with respect, kindness, and wonder."
Greetings, I'm Claire — a professional nanny, baby whisperer, and counselor in training with a deep love for children, creativity, and healing arts. My background is in expressive arts therapy, nutrition, and heart-led play. I am an artist at heart and a lifelong intuitive, which has served me well with babies as they learn how to communicate.
I was born the eldest of four & I've spent over a decade helping little ones thrive — through meltdowns and magic, nap times and nature walks, always with respect, kindness, and wonder.
Originally in my studies I was on track to become a dietitian, studying Nutrition. But during my hospital internship, I saw how broken the medical system was — doctors fed processed food daily from the pharma reps pushing prescriptions. My heart knew I couldn't serve holistic wellness from inside that system.
So I shifted.
I dove into grad school for School Counseling and Expressive Arts Therapy. It cracked me open in the best way. But in a school system of 1,000+ kids I realized: I couldn't offer the depth I was meant to give.
What I wanted most was this:
To teach art and wellness. To nourish children as whole beings. To slow down, connect, and care — really care.
So I chose to follow my own healing path as a professional caregiver. I am currently specializing in fill-in care and travel nannying. I'm opening for more bookings, especially travel jobs ✈️ and soon 1:1 sessions 🌀 with families who value connection, presence, and play.
Let's co-create beauty wherever we land. 🏝️
Whether it's building fairy houses, navigating big feelings, or making magic in the mundane — there is no place I'd rather be.
💌 I'd love to connect.
