A little bit about me
I am a retired school teacher of 23 years. The majority of those years were spent teaching first grade. I am married and have two daughters who are 17 and 20 years old. I remember when my girls were little and how stressful it was to find the right person to care for them. I would love the opportunity to help a family in need.

A little bit about me
Hi there! I am 24 years old and am currently finishing my bachelors degree in child development and family studies. I have been a full time nanny for six years but have been working with children since I was in middle school. I was a camp counselor each summer in high school and babysat for many families in my community. I worked as a teacher aide in a pre school classroom for two years in college and have been a nanny for multiple families over the past six years. I worked for one family for 3.5 years, from the time their son was seven months to 4 years old. I loved watching him grow up and seeing him become such a wonderful kiddo.
When I spend time taking care of kids I typically engage them in developmental and educational activities, outdoor activities, reading a variety of books, different kinds of arts and crafts, and baking or cooking fun recipes. My top priority when working with kids is creating a safe, warm, and encouraging environment for them to thrive in.
