I have 13 + of experience working with children. I was a teacher in a elementary school for 10 years. I have experience working in a daycare before starting college. I currently take care of children on call during the weekends. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help, grow and teach.

Joanna has been an amazing nanny for our 2 girls (3 &5) and we are so sad that she is moving! We've trusted her to pick them up from school, drive them to activites and set up playdates, etc. She is also fantastic with homework and reading help. She is reliable, helpful, considerate, thoughtful and very caring of our girls. They love spending time with her as well and she really feels like part of the family. She will truly be missed!
