A little bit about me

For years, I have worked with children. Most recently, I taught English to children in the Israel school system, while also babysitting a kind family and tutoring a 4-year along the way. In the previous 6 summers, I worked at Sunrise Day camp, with children of all different medical and social disabilities. From all of these different experiences combined, I am prepared and enthusiastic to potentially nanny for your family.

In terms of education, I have a bachelors degree in psychology from the University of Pittsburgh! Any references can also be provided, I look forward to hearing from you!
