About Me

Some people wonder, are you really a nanny? And the answer is 'yes', I am. Or at least I use to be. I have been the nanny of two families, for a total of 4 years as a professional nanny in the New York City suburbs. And to answer the second question some ask, 'Did you really knit while  you were a nanny?' is also a big 'yes'! My real knitting career started at the end of my first year nannying, I had a friend who wanted to learn and I offered to teach her. After that, I remembered how much I loved to knit and haven't stopped since. 


Originally, my Mom taught me to knit when I was 8 years old. She was always doing a lot of crafty things when I was growing up, I remember her saying 'I can make that!' and she did (that's probably why I say that so frequently now). 


Now, I am a proud Mother of two very adorable sons and have decided to take my passion a bit further and try and make a living of it. Whether I can quit my day job or not is still to be determined, but I am enjoying every minute of my hobby-turned-entrepreneurship. My hope is that I can bring others a little joy to their day with what I make with my own two hands.
