A little bit about me

Nanny Available!
. I have had a passion for child care since an early age when I took on the big sister position to 2 of my younger siblings. Having parents who worked long hours put me in the mindset to want to help my younger siblings still have a sense of guidance and support in the house. I hope to offer not only my services as a child care worker but to apply my natural sense of a nurturing older sister who will always do my very best to create a trustworthy bond between the family and child to make them feel as if they have added new additions to their loving family.
I am also really big on creating activities for the child to enjoy while also having a taste of education along all steps of their development.I am looking for in SF..(but can be flexible to places where I can commute using the public transports, since I don't own a car)
I am available and open to questions and communication. Feel free to reach me at [phone number hidden] or email me at [email hidden]
