Hi there! I was a student at ISU studyjng Education and Psychology and before that I went to art school and traveled a lot. I have experience as nanny and house manager for about 10 years. I have experience with newborns to thirteen year olds. I love to read, arts and crafts, baking, and being out and active. I am able to provide an open availability and I have a car for transportation. I believe in hands on learning and privinding an environment that revolves around developmental goals and needs. I am flexable in terms of my duties as a nanny and/or house manager. I am always willing discuss what you and your family needs and work to provide that for you. Please feel free to message me and we can set up a time chat. Thank you!
