A little bit about me
I am retired from the legal/financial industry. I am a mother and grandmother. I raised 7 children, who are all exceptional adults now. I have five wonderful grandchildren.
When my children were young, I fostered at risk teenagers and children on the spectrum. I am very calm, caring, nurturing and patient. I have been told more than once that I “have the patience of Job.” I truly enjoy caring for children and I cherish the family bond.
I love to cook and I specialize in weekly meal prep. I am experienced with special diets including, diabetic, gluten-free, and weight loss.
I am available for meal-prep only … just ask! 😊

A little bit about me
I grew up with 2 younger sisters and one nephew who I basically raised. During college, I babysat a fun, energetic 3 year old boy for about a year and a half. I was also a nanny to a 2 year old child for my ministry leaders. I was in Children's Ministry for half of the year at my church. Before leaving California, I was a nanny to a sweet, adventurous 3 year old boy for almost 2 years.
My responsibilities include crafts, tutoring, reading, cooking, changing diapers, and driving to/from places.
I love being around children! I believe it is important as adults to teach them principles at such a young age because these are the years where they retain so much and are easily molded.
I also offer house services. I can cook, clean, and run errands. Organizing is a fun, relaxing activity for me to do.

I am patient, nurturing, dependable, energetic, and calm under pressure. I connect easily with children and help them feel safe, supported, and understood. In addition to childcare, I offer household services including cooking, cleaning, running errands, laundry, and organizing.
I am comfortable with cats and dogs (size discussed in advance) and have limited transportation, which I communicate clearly. I am reliable, consistently available, and take pride in being someone families can trust as part of their village.

What Is a House Manager/Nanny?
A House Manager/Nanny combines childcare with household management or family assistant duties. Besides caring for the children, they help run the household, from organizing schedules and errands to supervising other help, which suits busy families who want one person looking after the home and the children.

Duties often include meal planning and grocery shopping, laundry, organizing the home, running errands, scheduling appointments and activities, and coordinating with other household staff, on top of childcare. The balance between childcare and household tasks varies from one family to another.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Be specific about how the time is split between childcare and household work, and put it in a job description. Roles that combine duties may be paid at a higher rate, and they call for more experience. Make sure expectations about housekeeping, such as deep cleaning, are clear from the start.
