Hi there! My name is Laura. I am 27 with one year of nannying experience as well as six years of babysitting experience. I am a award winning songwriter and poet. I can provide my own transportation. I live in Albany, NY. I also have a very flexible schedule. I am a musician and I love to sing and play guitar and piano with kids. Lullabies are my favorite! I also love board games. I studied Writing and Communication at Houghton College. I've held poetry workshops with older kids I have watched. We read Dr. Seuss and learn about poetic forms such as haiku and limericks!
