Summary

Responsible, reliable, timely, and caring Nanny with a passion for people. I have years of experience taking care of newborns to middle schoolers, and have been involved in both full-time nanny gigs for families and being a leader at summer camps working with groups of children. I love being a part forward thinking progress and creating a safe, fun, and stimulating space for littles to freely express themselves, all the while learning and growing. Versatile and adaptable in conducting errands, cooking, cleaning, and helping with chores and daily household tasks.
