Hi! I'm a professional nanny who is currently interested in short term/ emergency situation/backup care for those searching for childcare. I'd describe my personality as sweet, warm, genuine I like working with kids because I genuinely enjoy engaging with children and learning things alongside them. I started working with kids when I was very young. I've babysat since I was 11, I've been a professional nanny, run a daycare, managed a summer camp and a preschool, and have also been a doula and infant care night nanny! I like to travel, horseback ride, bake, read, and hang out with my dog in my spare time! One thing you should know about me is that I'm a historian by education! I love taking kids to museums, art shows, and other adventures! My skills include infant care, experience with neuro-diverse children, and CPR/first aid skills. I'm fully vaccinated, including varicella, annual flu Read more shots, and the Pfizer two-series Covid vaccine. Go, science!
