A little bit about me
In 2018 I graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Agriculture Technologies Management and Education, while working as a teaching assistant at the University, and a leader in our sustainability organization.
Having grown up babysitting and nannying, child care comes naturally. I love to educate, explain, and grow with their intrinsic curiosities. Additionally, I am a certified nutritionist and am more than capable of cooking healthy well balanced meals.
Currently, I work as a part-time business development associate (a glorified title for an intern) about 20 hours a week remotely, on my own schedule. So any days or time preferences you have will work.
-------------------------------------------
I would love to learn more about you child(ren) and your individual needs. I know parents can always use an extra set of hands, so I'm here to assist any way I can.

A little bit about me
My name is Katherine Janney, I just graduated from Concordia university with a bachelors in psychology. I worked for the YMCA for two years in the child care center. I took care of kids ages 6 weeks to 10 years. My duties there are similar to a nannies. I fed the infants, changed diapers, cleaned, played with the older kids, etc. I worked for the city of Vancouver's Parks and Recreation youth day camp. I worked full time with kids ages 6-10. Most recently I have been nannying a great baby girl! I have been her nanny since April and she just turned 1! Sadly, she was given a great opportunity at a daycare who had a rare opening and my days were cut back. I am only needed now on Thursdays and would love to find another family to fill in for those days. I enjoy working with kids and being a positive influence in their life's. I am very interested in your nanny position and look forward to hearing back from you.
