A little bit about me
I have 14+ years experience in childcare; 11 of those have been professional. While my primary area of expertise is in education, I also have 9 years experience as a nanny and event planner. One of the families I was with for 4 years involved being a household manager/personal assistant.
Privately as a nanny, I have worked for an NFL family and for a family of 2 very busy doctors who ran their own practice. My duties included light housekeeping, managing appointments, keeping up with and communicating with all maintenance workers, picking up and dropping off kids, interacting with kids, grocery shopping, meal prep for dinner and school lunches, and taking care of the family's 5 dogs, multiple guinea pigs, and a bearded dragon.
I graduated from HBU in Dec. 2010 and then started working for LCISD in Feb. of 2011. I have taught in both public and private schools. I'd be glad to send any of my references as well as videochat or meet in person to get to know each other better :)

exceptional childcare from infancy through to high school. I am an effective

and have a clean driving record. I excel at remaining calm and composed in
challenging situations. I am reliable, patient, trustworthy, and possess the ability
to multitask and work without supervision. My skills in childcare along with my
positive, strong verbal skills and friendly nature, position me to excel in many
environments. It is my top priority to always make every child and parent feel
comfortable and safe.

What Is a House Manager/Nanny?

What to Consider Before You Hire
Be specific about how the time is split between childcare and household work, and put it in a job description. Roles that combine duties may be paid at a higher rate, and they call for more experience. Make sure expectations about housekeeping, such as deep cleaning, are clear from the start.

- Have you worked as a nanny and as a household manager or family assistant?
- What household tasks are you comfortable managing?
- How do you organize schedules, errands, and appointments?
