I have three years experience as a nanny when I lived in Burlington, VT for a beloved family, with two boys, ages 3 and 5. While there, I independently supervised and facilitated academic, social, and recreational activities. I provided enforcement to promote children’s self-confidence, behavioral management, and basic hygiene skills. i also prepared nutritious snacks and dinner, and helped to maintain a safe and clean environment (ex. laundry, dishes, light housecleaning). I also happily helped take care of their Saint Bernard, who I took for walks and fed. I have an associates in Early Education and a masters in Professional Studies of Social Work. I worked with children at the Burlington Children's Space in Burlington, VT for 4 years. I am CPR certified and used to be a swim instructor/lifeguard as well as an after-school counselor.

Marla was amazing. I needed a last minute sitter under unusual circumstances for a meeting and she was extremely accommodating, friendly, professional, knowledgeable. Overall Marla was everything you would want in a sitter.
