A little bit about me
I am a 16 year old transgender Male who is looking for a family to care for. I have very high anxiety, so the ability to really get to know and understand a child is a lot easier than alternating babysitter jobs like. I've been in the childcare business for 4 years, and have been Red Cross certified to care for infants up to the age of 10. I love arts & crafts, music, dancing, and anything you get to express yourself with. I go to school from Fall to June, so I will be in classes from 8am to 3:20 PM. I am available all day on Saturdays and Sundays. One thing that is not as positive is that due to my anxiety, I have a condition called pseudo seizures. Even with my low days, I manage to smile, and never have experienced an episode around a child. I go to a lot of doctors often, so ideally I'd work weekends.

A little bit about me
I have been a nanny for nearly 14 years and have a background in early childhood education. I embrace supporting your child's own curiosity and creativity to learn, and emphasize communicating their needs and autonomy in a constructive manner as well as respecting the needs and autonomy of those around them. Whether you're a family or two or ten my goal is to integrate seamlessly into your own parenting plan for your kiddos; I am very open minded to new and familiar parenting styles but am also more than willing to offer advice when asked. I have experience with many different family dynamics and with all ages from newborn to preteen.
