A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kiffyn, and nannying has been my favorite job I have ever done. I nannied for the same family for about 3 years with plenty of other child care experience outside of that. I also nannied for a different family following that. I am looking for another family to develop that same connection with! I am an aunt to 13 nieces and nephews starting at age 8. So childcare runs in my blood! I also love to sew, rollerskate, and play volleyball. I am currently enrolled in graduate school at the University of Delaware to become a Speech Language Pathologist. So, kids are my thing! Would love to connect about being your next caregiver for your kids!
