Hello, my name is Kelsey, and I am The Festival Nanny!

I grew up in ​California, lived in Upstate New York for a few years to obtain my ​master’s degree (in early childhood special education), and now ​reside in the Bay Area. I have over 11 years of paid childcare ​experience in varying positions; I have been a preschool teacher and ​a nanny for all ages of children, including multiples, siblings, and ​children with special needs. Before earning my master’s degree ​from Syracuse University, I earned my bachelor’s degree in child ​development from California State University, Sacramento. I love ​working with children and watching their minds grow while helping ​to facilitate their learning and love for life. I am also very musical ​and enjoy taking photos (especially of wiggly beings like pets and ​kiddos!) and helping others to pursue their passions. Being a festival ​nanny merges all of my passions and interests into one position, ​and I couldn’t be more excited to be embarking on this journey with ​fellow music lovers!
