A little bit about me

Hi my name is Nancy. I have years of Nanny experience. I am a nurturing, caring person and love caring for children of all ages. I worked as a nanny all through college and ran a daycare while raising my own two daughters. The last year I've been managing my daughters music career and traveling with her. She is now able to be on her own, so I would love to get back into being a nanny:)
