A little bit about me

Hello all, I'm Analisa currently seeking a nanny family to make my own. I am 26 years of age with 8 years of experience. I have a wide variety of experience, this ranges from premature newborns in the NICU, newborns, toddlers, infants, children, teens + special needs children, and adults. I am a mother of two girls (2) + (9m). I have had experience for over four years as a para- ed assistant in the Special Needs department. I enjoy the outdoors! I would consider myself to be fun and creative. Safe to say I'd be the "cool babysitter". I am also safe in the real world- I am an Emergency Medical Responder, this includes being CPR Certified, BLS Certified, AED certified, infant CPR certified. I am very flexible and willing to work around your schedule. I look forward to speaking further about our options. Thank you for taking the time to read this, best regards -Analisa
