A little bit about me

I've been a full-time nanny since July but my charge and her family are moving in January. I am a mother of 9 year old twins and we speak German as a family. I am a believer in Jesus Christ; my love for God is an intrinsic part of me and shines through in the care to my charge(s). If we are a good fit and we decide to work together: I will be praying for your child(ren) and your family, your child(ren) will hear Bible stories, and will hear Christ-centered music. I am a part-time worship leader and I play harp and guitar.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Lexi! I am a local college student looking to gain some childcare experience. I'm in my senior at Lenoir-Rhyne University and have tons of experience doing various things. I'll graduate in May with a bachelor in psychology with a focus in developmental psych. Although my experience has been limited, I'm the oldest child in a big family. Children tend to warm up to me fairly easily and I can gauge needs quickly. If there is anything else you'd care to know about me, feel free to reach out!!
