A little bit about me
Hi. My name is Christine and I'm 54 years old. I was a stay-at-home mother for 16 years to raise our five children. We homeschooled for a few of those early years. When I joined the workforce I worked with special ed children in the school district preschool. I learned so much about how to work with and educating young children. I did that job for 5 years and then turned to a a full-time position working with mentally, emotionally, physically, disabled or handicapped individuals 18 years and older. I learned even more from the contrast and from the things that actually work with both groups. I nannied in college for 3 years and I started to do Nanny work again about 4 years ago. I absolutely love what I do. I loved it when I was in my twenties and 30s, and I'm blessed to be able to return to it in my 50s and moving forward. Thank you.

Recent reference
"I have known Sarai since 2017 when I started working at NPH USA (Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos). Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos is a network of homes for vulnerable children in Latin America and the Caribbean. Sarai and her brother lost their parents due to a car accident and they joined the NPH family in Honduras.
Although life was tough, Sarai took advantage of all the opportunities that NPH had to offer. She worked hard, studied hard, and found success in everything she set out to do. She still has this same energy, this same drive today.
Sarai found her passion and success as a teacher. She started working at NPH's Montessori school in 2017 and worked up until the pandemic struck in 2020. Sarai is a natural teacher/caregiver. She has endless amounts of patience and is truly gifted in teaching children and guiding them to feel confident in themselves and their abilities. Sarai is trustworthy and is most comfortable around family. You won't regret trusting her with yours."

A little bit about me
Hi! I'm Valerie. I've been working with children professionally for the past 5 years. While I have the most experience with infants and toddlers, I am comfortable with all ages. Working with children is beyond fulfilling and brings me such a sense of pride and joy. I use a Montessori-based teaching approach and try to let the child lead most activities. I love being outside surrounded by nature, whether it's the ocean or on a farm. I love being outside with the little ones as much as possible.
