A little bit about me

My experience caring for children started at a young age. As the oldest of three kids, I always took responsibility for looking after my younger brother and sister as well as my younger cousins. I believe that's where my maternal instincts really started. At age 15 I was a summer camp counselor for 4-year-old girls and I loved every second. I looked forward to doing that every summer. Over the years, my nurturing nature developed and I starting babysitting my baby cousins and their friends while my aunt and uncle went out.

For the last 3 years, I have been a full-time nanny and caring for an AMAZING family of 4 kids. It's been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.

It has always come easy to me to care for children and I take great pride in being able to partake in their young lives. My love for children continues to grow!

When you have me as your nanny, you can expect your kids to feel fully loved, heard, and cared for.
