A little bit about me

Rene’s journey began as an eleven year old child babysitting for different relatives as a side job. This eventually led to her working at two schools for ages infants to middle school. As a nanny she would come to their home early in the morning and wake the child up, prepare a breakfast, and send him off to school. In the afternoon she would pick the child up for school, help with homework, give him a snack, and take him to outside activities such as ice skating, theater, basketball, and swimming. The day would end at home with Rene preparing dinner and waiting for the parents to arrive. Rene is a recently graduated college student looking for a family that will fit her as much as she will hopefully fit them. As a hands-on nanny she enjoys spending most days creating activities based on what the child enjoys. Activities such as going to the park, playing video games, going swimming, or maybe going to chucky cheese or a fun movie. Well that's all from me. Hope to hear from you soon.
