The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moments is when the child trusts you. When you become there safe place as well as watching them doing something that you have taught them either directly or indirectly. I always use the motto I am firm but fair and fun . I have cared for over 40 children in my lifetime and every child holds a special place in my heart.
