A little bit about me

I’m currently a college student who’s excited to be working with kids again. I have taken childhood development courses in the past and also did a summer internship where I worked with kids ages 5-10 so I know how to keep kids accused with activities to help with their cognitive development. Other than my childhood development courses I have also taken multiple psychology courses. I’m also bilingual and can speak both English and Spanish. I’m very patient, have a bubbly personality, compassionate and can get along with any and every kind of personality!

Hello I’m Lauren.

I have two grown daughters and 4 grandchildren ages [phone number hidden].

I’ve worked for 40 years so I decided to take a hiatus a few years ago and go back to school. Im finishing up a degree in general studies and deciding what to do next.

I’ve nannied for 3 years For. 2 of the 3 I took care of Porter (3-5) and Thatcher (1-3) whose parents were theater actors. I also took care of a 10 month boy named Nathaniel who would only go to sleep listening to Cat Stevens (I am completely serious) and a 5 mo. old Katherine (Kate).

I also love helping families by keeping their homes clean and organized.

I just turned 60 and still have tons of energy. I love to play music and sing songs and do projects with children like acrylic painting or building lego villages or planting a miniature garden.

I plan to Nanny for just two years and while attending online classes. I’m available for up to 30 hrs per week.

I’m an open book ask me anything you’d like.
