A little bit about me

I come from a large family and as such was always around kids. During my teenage years people begun to notice how their kids were naturally attracted to me.
So after high school, I went on to train to become a teacher in my home country of Ghana

When I arrived in the United States, my sister introduced me to the wonderful world of the Nanny profession. I was hooked.
Over the years I have had the privilege of working for many wonderful families and meeting some terrific kids, most of whom in turn have blessed me so much.

Child care comes to me as natural as breathing, and when a family trusts me with their most prized possession, their child, I pour my heart and soul into the job.
I am security conscious, detail oriented individual. Also very dependable.
I have more than 15 years of child care experience in the United States alone. Over the years, I have also had the opportunity to work with multiple families at a time .
I'm also the mother of 9 year old twins.

Diana C. - Seeking Work in Reston

Part-Time Nanny Available in Reston, VA: Diana C.

I am a 58 year-old retired mother of three. My kids are grown and flown, they are 28, 26 and 22. I worked for 33 years in the corporate world and I am now ready to get back to my roots, which was working with children. I babysat for 10 years, worked multiple daycare jobs, and got my degree in early childhood education. I substitute taught for 18 months before accepting a job in the corporate sector. I raised my children on my own as I'm a widow and used multiple nannies during that time. Because of my experience in employing nannies, I am aware of what it takes to be a good one. I have worked with children of all ages, but my passion is working with infants. When I was working daycare, I spent part of the time in the infant room so I also have experience working with multiple infants at one time. I believe that the most important thing for an infant is to make sure they feel safe and secure.
