A little bit about me

Kind, nurturing, self starter, creative and wise. Willing to go the extra mile. Not only did a raise my deceased sister 6 children I also had the honor of being a full time nanny for four families. I would like to think I specialize in the tiny ones as I have cared for multiple premature babies and a set of twins as preemies as well. I don’t have any children of my own but this doesn’t stop me from loving all children unconditionally. It’s been about 5 years since I was a full time nanny and a miss it. So I am hoping to find a great fit with a loving family very soon.
