A little bit about me

I became a nanny is the early years of my adulthood. I feel the experience with the family I worked for molded me to be the adult, woman and mother I am to my own children. It taught me patience, humility, love, generosity. The ability to multi task and run an efficient household.

I am now the mother of my own 5 children. Ages 9 -21. Two of whom have Special Needs. I was a stay at home mom for nearly 10 years. I was very active in my 2 daughters therapies for their special needs as well as active in all the kids schools PTO's and school activities. I volunteered in separate schools for library assistant and also as a teachers aide.
