A little bit about me

Hi name is Madison, most people call me Maddie! I have over seven years of nannying experience, as well as a back round in teaching dance and numerous years of daycare experience in ages ranging in infant-school age. I believe that my references show for the person I am. My goal is always to be as accommodating as possible and will constantly do more then I am asked . I believe that nannying is more then just caring for a child but creating a bond and looking at ones child as my family. It is important that the fit feels right and that we are both comfortable with each and this is a mutual 100% connection on both ends.
