A little bit about me

I worked for a district based after school program in Hillsborough County and there I became CPR and First Aid certified renewing my certifications as needed. I nannied for a family full time until the child was 13 months old. My duties included sleep training, tummy time, naps, diaper changes, play through learning, food introductions, etc. I went on working for Hillsborough County Schools at an elementary school as a paraprofessional eventually leading to a teachers assistant. I assisted elementary aged students with disabilities with social emotional skills as well as core instruction. I grew from that job and became employed by two top doctors in Tampa, FL. I care for three children (6, 3, 2) currently but started when the oldest was 3 and the others were newborns. There i assist the family in household managing duties such as grocery shopping, laundry, schedules, driving on top of caring for the children. (Sleep training, potty training, bathing, food prep, driving, laundry, etc)
