A little bit about me

I am a young but experienced nanny looking for part time work to support myself through graduate school. As one of 7 siblings and an aunt of 4, I adore kids and have a range of experiences to bring to the table. I have been a children’s camp counselor, teacher and coach in different settings for ages as young as infants-18, and my most recent nannying & housekeeping experience is currently ongoing with a family of 4 (kids aged infant, 2, 4, 7 and 11). I have a golden retriever named Kona who I love dearly; We love to travel and go on nature walks. I love to cook, binge Netflix and go out with friends for food/drinks for fun. I believe a nannying career is the best thing for me right now and suits my personality and blend of background skill sets perfectly! I also see it as a way of helping me afford to get through school at UPenn as I work to become a Nurse Practitioner. Above all else, I’m happy to answer any questions and look forward to connecting and helping your family thrive! (:
