Hi! I am a student getting my MSW in child development and social work. I love working with children, especially young children, and families. I have many years of full and part time nannying and babysitting experience in addition to preschool and early intervention work. I’m reliable, responsible, caring, nurturing and a great communicator/team player. I’m infant and child CPR certified, fully vaccinated, and am currently in grad school studying child development. I’ve supported families in the past around feeding issues, sleep schedules, etc. I hope to hear from you!
