A little bit about me

Hello!
I have experience as a nanny, children's martial art instructor, day care teacher, and Sunday school teacher. After graduating college with a bachelor's degree in Information Systems, I've grown in a corporate career and struggled to find the joy and satisfaction I had when working with children. I'm shifting my focus back to a child focused career where I have the opportunity to pour my care, focus, skills, and joy into a special family. It's going to be good!

A little bit about me

I have over seven years of experience in babysitting nannying, and providing attentive care for children of various ages. Throughout this time, I have developed strong communication and problem-solving skills, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment. I am CPR certified, giving me the confidence to handle any emergency situation if it arises. I recently graduated from James Madison University and can provide a fresh perspective and a strong work ethic to my caregiving roles. Additionally, growing up with a brother who has a disability has further honed my ability to be patient, empathetic, and adaptable when supporting children with diverse needs!
