The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important thing about being a nanny is having the opportunity to be part of this amazing journey. Not only are you part of their milestones of growth and new foundations of motor skills that excite you and the parents, but you are also the best person the child can count on, pouring into the child emotionally. I love being someone that the child looks forward to seeing because they brighten my day the same way.

My experience with special needs children...

Autism when i was in eight grade i had the privilege of reading to someone who didn't have the capacity to read not only did I read to her everyday but I became her friend, mentor someone she relied on everyday to give her a normal middle school experience!

The most important part about being a nanny...
