A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Franny, nice to meet all of you.
Just a little about me, I'm an artist but most importantly I'm a mama. My kids are a spunky 4-year-old and the most loving 2-year-old. I've chosen to be a SAHM, but having a nanny gig would vastly increase our families happiness not only by having the extra income to help our family out, but also having another little one around as a playmate for my children would enrich our lives.
For our family, we enjoy long strolls to the park, collecting nature treasures & smelling every flower along the way! We're pretty big on library story-time. We love a good sensory play day.
Not only am I mothering my children, but I do have a bit of childcare experience under my belt. I worked as a pediatric dental assistant, then took up nannying. I cared for three families part-time, a family with 6 and 9-year-old girls, a family with a 9-year-old boy, and another with twin toddlers. I loved the closeness and bond that grew with these families.
