A little bit about me

Hi! I am a fun-loving nanny with over a decade of experience in childcare. I have worked independently as a private family nanny for many families and I've also worked as a church nursery teacher for a total of four years. I started babysitting when I was 11 and since then have never stopped - I find it super easy to connect with kids. I have experience caring for children of all age groups from newborns to teens. I have had jobs with many unique requirements and have always welcomed learning opportunities where I could adapt to specific needs and gain new skills and knowledge about how to provide the best care to the families I care for. Though I don't take myself too seriously and love play time, I do take my role as a caregiver very seriously. For me this means safety always comes first at all times. I am always striving to be better which is why I'm taking classes on child development and working on my Child Development Associate certificate.

I am an energetic and enthusiastic worker that loves to interact with children. I have experience taking care of children in general. Most of my experience comes from working with the youth at my church. I’m an all over the place I love “old school things”. Movies, music and tv but I also love kid movies. I mostly listen to country music. Your child may learn a song or two with me.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
