A little bit about me

My name is Bella! I have experience being a nanny throughout high school and college. In high school, I would babysit the neighbor kids ranging from 3-13 years old. During my junior year of college, I was a nanny for an 5 and 7 year old girl and helped them through online school during the pandemic. After that, I was a nanny for an infant from 1 week old until she was 1.5 years old. My responsibilities included light housekeeping, meal prep, caring for the child as well as the family dog, attending doctors appointments, and sometimes traveling with the family. I graduated college in 2022 and have work in the field of child welfare since!!
