While my primary area of expertise is in education, I also have 7 years experience as a nanny and event planner. One of the families I was with for 4 years involved being a household manager/personal assistant. Privately as a nanny, I have worked for an NFL family and for a family of 2 very busy doctors who ran their own practice. My duties included light housekeeping, managing appointments, keeping up with and communicating with all maintenance workers, picking up and dropping off kids, interacting with kids, grocery shopping, meal prep for dinner and school lunches, and taking care of the family's 5 dogs, multiple guinea pigs, and a bearded dragon. I graduated from Houston Baptist University in Dec. 2010 and then started working for LCISD in Feb. of 2011. I have taught in both public and private schools. I left public education a few years ago as I got Read more tired of the insane emphasis on standardized testing. Standardized testing really took a lot of the joy out of actually teaching, so I chose to go the private route. I much prefer the creative/whole child approach to teaching. The past few years, I have been working with a handful of families in their private residences homeschooling and being a nanny for their children and developing an individualized curriculum plan for each student.
