A little bit about me

I am a hard working and energetic 31 year-old with tons of experience caring for children. Including children with special needs and specializing in autism. I have worked in a pediatric hospital and nannied for families while I was in my child development classes for college. I have worked with 5 families in the last 4 yrs with a mix of ages 3 months to 12 years old (with live-in experience.) I also have four rambunctious siblings I helped raise all now 18-7 in age.
I quit private flight attending start training as a voiceover actor and nannying is a fulfilling way to help accomplish that goal.
My favorite part of being a nanny is getting to be a part of those huge milestones in their development, and pushing kids to see their true capabilities by empowering them to feel like they are capable of so much more than they feel they can do.
