A little bit about me

I have spent many years working with children. I began babysitting for my cousins when I was young and moved up to being the sole sitter for a family throughout high school and college. After graduating, I became a pediatric nurse at Riley Hospital for Children until I had kids of my own. I worked as school nurse when my children were younger. I raised "Irish twins" and their older brother and loved every minute of it! I am flexible on hours and pay and really looking for a family I "click" with so this can be a relationship of mutual trust and respect vs. collecting a paycheck.
