A little bit about me

Hello! :) My names Ava and I’m super passionate about working with kids! I have a psych degree & will eventually work in the school system. For now I'm looking to care for 1-3 children full time, shorter term as I will start working towards my career next year. I have 2 years experience nannying 2 children ages 6mo-5yrs old. I’m really fun & imaginative so your kids will never be bored! I will also provide light housework/meal prep if needed. I love being outdoors, so it’d be ideal if I was allowed to bring the kids to the park/playground etc. but a yard would also work :) I also love doing arts and crafts!
