A little bit about me

I am retired from my corporate position, but don’t like not working at all. Would like to find more of a part time job working with a nice family. I am working now for a very nice family in the afternoons but would love to take care of little children or babies in the mornings. I have raised Three great kids now in their 20s and I still don’t have grandchildren! Love being with children and pets and feeling like I’m really helping some nice family!

A little bit about me

Hello!
I have over 20 years experience as a Nanny/House Manager. I’m a mom to two children. Girl (15) boy (12). I always volunteered in my children’s schools, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, helped coach sports, my kids friends think of me as their second mom. Before I had children I was a loan processor for many years. I got back into nannying part-time when my children were young so a could have flexibility. For the past 1 1/2 years I have been working full-time as a nanny. I have been certified with Trustline since 1997, up to date on all my vaccines, clean driving record and background check. I have letters of recommendation from twenty years ago. I have an abundance of positive energy. I come to work everyday with a smile and leave with one too! I make sure the children I watch are well taken care of and are happy. I keep the parents posted throughout the day with texts, videos, pictures and daily log. I enjoy taking the children on outings to the park, walks, outside for a picnic or playing on the floor with them. I make sure to leave the families house cleaner than what it was when I arrived. I always do a little extra jobs for the family just to make their time at home easier. I might prepare dinner, clean fridgerator, empty garbage, etc. I look forward to finding a great family where I can share my love for children!
