A little bit about me

Hi there! I would love to be of great assistance to a family and provide excellent child care! I have been a nanny to two different families over the summertime in the past. Most recently, I have been a teacher/teacher assistant in child care centers for the last four years. I have been trained annually to provide the best care, and have been licensed through the Department of Education as an early childhood teacher. In addition to that, I am also CPR/First Aid certified, and also have my medication certification. Beyond providing child care, I want to succeed every day in helping your children meet every one of their needs that will help with their growth development. I am a friendly and creative person, who likes to be active throughout the day, especially with any nature activities. I hope I can fit right in with your family soon!
