A little bit about me

Hello! I am currently attending law school at Loyola and looking for work as a nanny during the day so I can attend school at night. I received my bachelors degree in English - Secondary Education and taught 6th grade Reading for two years prior to deciding to attend law school. I started babysitting when I was 14 years old and transitioned into being a nanny/weekend sitter in college. I have tons of experience with children aged 6mo-12years and even spent a summer as a live-in nanny in Tx. If you have any questions or would like to meet please do not hesitate to contact me.
