A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm Cameron, I'm 28yrs old and originally from western Maryland. Throughout highschool and college, I babysat for several years. I also volunteered as a pre-k assistant in my mom's classroom, and have plenty of experience with babies and toddlers under 4yo. Right now I WFH but would love to transition to nanny part or full-time for the right family. I live in West Ashley where I will commute to your home. I can also help out with light housekeeping. I can prep meal/snacks for the kiddos as provided by your family.

I'm planning on getting First Aid/CPR/AED certified in SC! I have been in past years as well.

I'd love to get to know you and your little ones to see if we might be a fit! Please reach out to me if you're interested, thank you! :)
