A little bit about me

I am a retired professional woman. With retirement, I knew I would never stop working. I wanted to do something meaningful that makes a difference and has a positive impact in today’s world.

I decided to pursue a second career as a full-time/part-time nanny. I want the reward of playing an important role in a child’s life. I love children because of their imagination, honesty, and natural curiosity to observe and learn.

I have raised my own children and played an important role in the upbringing of my grandchildren, who are now 19 and 17 years old. While my children were growing up, I operated a licensed childcare service. My family also served as foster parents for many years, during which we cared for many children

With over 10 years of experience loving, caring for, and teaching children, I am confident in my ability to provide a nurturing and enriching environment for any child in my care.

When I was in my late teens I was a preschool teacher for 2 years. I worked with children ages 8wks to 7 year old's.

My husband and I were also Foster Parents for 10 years.

My experience range is from infant to 18...lol

The most important part about being a nanny...

To be a positive entity in a child-children's life.
To provide a loving and caring relationship with the child-children.
To help form the child-children's interests in education, adventure, imagination and being a respectful and caring person.

My experience with special needs children...

The most important part about being a nanny...

Its potty training. The child is so proud of themselves. I love to hear the excitement in their voice when they tell their parents.
