A little bit about me

Childcare has always been a passion on mine, I have a special place in my heart for infants and toddlers.
When I was 11 years old I started as a 3 night a week babysitter for a 2 and 6-year-old. I continued to babysit and nanny in the summertime for many families over the years until I graduated from high school. From there I worked in daycare for a little over 2 years, the second year I also was an after school nanny for the family that owned the Primrose I was working at.
For the last 3 years I was a nanny for an amazing family, helping to rise their 2 kids and seeing them through many milestones and fun, wonderful trips to Disney world! Unfortunately children grow up and the time has come that I start looking for new littles to love.
I have many personal and professional references and recommendations as well driving history as well as background checks to offer (available on care.com)!
