A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Jessica! I've never really picked into nannying but I do and have babysat! I love children and am actually looking forward to my own as of next May! My fiancée has told me that I am great with children and I'm pretty handy around the house as well, when it comes to cleaning up and making sure things are tidy for when you get back home from a long day at work. Being that I'm pregnant, I'm looking for a job that doesn't have me on my feet as much as these industrial jobs. And due to my lack in experience in particularly nannying I'm hoping you'll give me the chance. Along with children I am also great with animals. Dogs, cats, rabbits. But I don't fancy reptiles to much.
