I have many years in both the public and private sectors working with children and a graduate degree ( shy of clinical hours) in Early Childhood Development but it was only after i became a Mother myself did i realize that i have a talent for working with children. i am a teacher by nature and a lover of indoor and outdoor activities and I strongly believe in finding the teachable moments in all activities. I have also been a teacher and a private tutor, I am primarily a my Nanny but in the last 10 years I have also been a Household manager I know how important it is for us parents to feel our children are in the next best capable hands after our own. i also know how important it is to become an adjunct member of the family while instinctively knowing when to fade into the Read more background and be a Supoort. I work collaboratively with parents but absolutely know how to take initiative i am good at caring for and learning all the particular nuances of that family in order to make a seamless transition into becoming a reliable source of help. i have a wonderful sense of humor and compassion both of which has made it easy for children to bond with me, I’m still quite close to all the long term families I have Nannied for Excellent references are available upon request I work with several agencies but have had wonderful luck on Sitter City so please feel free to contact me directly
