A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Cassidy and I have been a nanny since I graduated high school in 2013. I grew up in Charleston. I love art, gardening, and hiking. I drive a reliable RAV4. I love working with kids. My nannying philosophy is to keep the kids active and away from screen time. I also believe implementing education with play time helps the child grow!

A little bit about me

I am 37 years old.
I love working with children. I don't have any professional experience, but my family always trusted me to babysit my younger siblings, cousins, and friends of all ages, including toddlers. I understand children's personalities and connect with them easily. They seem to like me too and warm up to me quickly.
