A little bit about me

My name is Perisha , I have worked in a child care setting for the past 9 years. I love developing close relationships with both children and the families. I pay very close attention to the needs and wants of each child. I love to teach the children. I want to make the transition to a nanny because I want to be able to give me time and attention to one child and family and provide them with what they are looking for.
