A little bit about me

Hello, I have been caring for infants and children for over 25yrs and through those years I’ve done everything from teaching Sunday school, working in a daycare, caring for children in my home, to working as a house manager/nanny in other peoples homes. I have been able to take many courses in regards to caring and teaching children throughout the years and I have experience with multiples,children with mental and physical issues, as well as looking after up to 7 children on a day to day basis. I also have experience cooking and cleaning professionally and am happy to apply those skills to help your household run as smoothly as possible so you can spend your time focusing on the kids and not the household tasks.

A little bit about me

Hello there! My name is Keigan. I am originally from the Pacific Northwest! I love hiking, arts and crafts, knitting, reading, music/singing, and anything outdoors. I was a preschool teacher and behavior therapist, now I work as a part time nanny for one family and also bring my 4 year old. I'd love to do some sort of nanny share with the other family I nanny for, at my house. It would be them, and my little one and take care of your precious little one too! I can't wait to meet your family ❤️

(Because of this, I would be flexible on cost!)
