A little bit about me

Hello! I’m Hannah, and I’m looking to switch from the role of an in home behavior technician practicing ABA to a fun loving nanny. I’ve had over 5 years of experience working with children as an adult, but was involved in childcare in my high school years as well. I love having kids engage in outdoor play, whether that be in the back yard or at the park, and I have a passion for finding screen-alternatives for inside play.
