Hello! I am a 34 year old mom of 4. I have been taking care of children ages infant to 18 years old since I was 12. I have 6 brothers and sisters and grew up caring for them. I have experience with special needs children and children with behavioral and emotional challenges. I worked in a daycare for many years and was a nanny for a family with 3 boys age s 3-10 for over a year. I was a stay at home mom for 10 years but with all my kids in school I am looking to nanny again :) I love to be out doors and I am good with meal prep, crafts, cleaning etc.

A little bit about me

I am a very patient, kind, friendly, open-minded, responsible and understanding person with 5 years of experience. I am a very organized, empathetic, cheerful and I respect the rules of each home. The safety, health and happiness of the children are my priorities. I have experience with children all ages, including new born and I'm very proud of the work that I did with them. Your child will not watch tv all day! In my experiences as a nanny, I have always prioritized interactive and educational activities. I like to teach them to perform such crafts. Some basic paper modeling, making a necklace with wool or teaching them to mix colors with painting are among some I find to be fun and beneficial to the growth of a child. I love being in contact with nature and I think it's very important, so I always try to go out for outdoor activities or even just to play.

A little bit about me

Currently I am working on a small island off the coast of Massachusetts. I am working at a sandwich shop. I am a customer representative as well as a sandwich creator. Two summers ago I worked at an overnight summer camp, Camp Cody. This job taught me an extensive amount about working with children. At this camp I was the primary caretaker for the children in my cabin. I was on the clock at all times and worked 6 days a week. The year prior; I worked in a Daycare as a teacher. I worked with children of ages 6 weeks- 8 years. At the daycare I was a primary school teacher. I watched up to 25 kids at a time, which allowed me to strengthen many important skills. I learned how to act quickly and responsibly. I also improved my communication skills with parents, other staff and of course children. I have also been volunteering within the school system for 3 years. When volunteering I was working side by side with teachers and other staff to help enhance the school system for childre
