A little bit about me

Hi my name is B I am a 37 yrs old a mother of 5 children ages [phone number hidden]. I was a full time Mom until recently when my youngest daughter was finally ready to let me work. Honestly, I had worked different places such as retail but not much as a nanny/babysitter.
I base my experience on how I raised my children & how I Baby sat my nieces & nephews for my siblings. Just like I mentioned I was a full time Mom & I did everything from child care to keeping the house clean to making dinner request by my kids & errands such as groceries & appointments etc.
I am also a Mom who wanted to seek help too before but it was a little more difficult for me to get that help. So I know exactly how difficult it is to be a Mom & the sacrifice we have to make for our family & I want to be able to help other parents that is in need.
Thank you for your time and I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,
B
