A little bit about me

Hi! So pleased to meet your acquaintance. My name is Zainab Kidwai, or as my kids call me, Miss Z! I adore children and hope to make serving children in schools my life’s work. I am a devoted woman always nurturing with patience and kindness but also enforcing discipline. I love to craft and am always thinking of my kids so I love to spend time at home getting together educational projects I can do with your children. I’m able to get them off the bus, do homework, tidy up, as well as complete homework and cook dinner then put them to bed. I am energetic and fun which is what kids need. I am 19 years old so you get the best of both worlds- a mature adult, and someone your kids will see as a friend.
