Meet Shannon

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I am 28 years old and moved to Santa Barbara almost two years ago to be a live-in nanny for a family with a 1-month old. The little girl has transitioned to daycare and I am looking for another loving family to join. I am patient, nurturing, honest, reliable, and have a loving demeanor. I live an active and healthy lifestyle and try to be outdoors as much as possible. My favorite activities with her included running, hiking, and biking together. I am experienced with all the day-to-day activities when caring for an child: changing diapers, feeding, nap/sleep schedules, talking/reading to them, doctor's visits, and providing a warm, love and enriching environment. I have a B. A. from the University of Kansas in Speech-Language & Hearing. With four years of classroom and clinical setting knowledge to hands-on work experience in two elementary schools in Saint Louis Missouri, I am extremely Read more knowledgeable and comfortable supporting those with special needs. On a day-to-day basis, I supported children not only academically but taught communication, social, pragmatic skills along with self-help support. My educational and professional experiences, as well as my hard work, empathy, compassion, and and bubbly personality makes me an exceptional Nanny! If you think we could be a good fit I would love the chance to tell you more about myself and learn more about your wants and needs. Feel free to call me at 314-406-0666 or contact me via email at shannontruss2@icloud.com for my resume and references. Thanks so much! Shannon
