A little bit about me

Hi There!
My name is Princess, and I’m excited to apply for the nanny position. I have hands-on experience with children as a Teacher Assistant, Camp Counselor, and Site Director through the YMCA, where I supported learning, led fun activities, and ensured a safe, caring environment. I’ve also worked in caregiving and currently serve as a Patient Care Coordinator.

I’m passionate about supporting families and children, and I’m preparing to enter the reproductive health field as a doula—something I’m truly excited about. I’d love the opportunity to bring that same care and energy to your family.
