A little bit about me

I have over five years of experience babysitting and nannying for multiple families. I've worked with children ranging from weeks old to 12 years of age, including two years in two gym daycare settings and an internship at a pediatric occupational therapy clinic. I am currently a live-in nanny, but the family will not be needing my help anymore. I will be starting occupational therapy school in the fall and I truly enjoy working with children and lending an extra hand to families. My strengths include patience, adaptability, and flexibility to the unique needs of each child I work with.
If you're looking for an outgoing, trustworthy and reliable child care provider, I'd love the opportunity to work with your family!
