I have always loved children. When I was a child, my parents had foster kids and I enjoyed helping with the younger kids. I started babysitting and teaching children's church at age eleven. My first full time job in college was at a daycare for medically fragile children. I have also taught English as a second language to children ages three to ten in Moscow. In total, I have four years daycare experience and four years in a classroom setting. I enjoy nannying the most because I believe each child deserves as much individual attention as possible to be nurtured into the best version of who they are meant to be. Every child should be given the opportunity to discover their special talents and qualities, and I believe the best way to do this is within the family unit.
