Hello! Thanks for taking the time out of your day to learn a little more about me. My husband and I recently moved to Upstate NY from Boise, ID, where I worked full time as a nanny for two absolutely wonderful families. Prior to that, I spent two years teaching 1st grade at a charter school in Colorado Springs, CO (a position I left due to concerns about teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic). I am most experienced with children between the ages of 2 and 7 but have also worked with infants and adolescents. I love getting to work with kids at all age ranges and stages of development! I'm a big fan of animals (I have two big dogs and two cats) and have no problem being in a home with pets. I love getting to do things that are active and hands-on with kids - nature walks, arts Read more and crafts, scavenger hunts, acting out favorite stories, etc. I first started providing childcare when I was in middle school - I got my Babysitter Certification from the Red Cross when I was 12 - and have taken on numerous part-time babysitting/nannying positions over the past 10+ years. The older I've gotten, the more I've come to appreciate the experience; it's very special to have the opportunity to get to know a family and to be a part of a child's life, and I understand how important it is to have someone kind and trustworthy taking care of your kid/s. If you are looking for a reliable, fun, and caring sitter to help your family and be there for your children, please do not hesitate to reach out to me!
