I have been caring for children for 17 years. It is very important to me to do what I love everyday and I have been very lucky to do so. I have worked as a teacher's aid at three different schools caring for infants - second grade, including special ed. kindergarten. I have been a babysitter and nanny to 9 different families and have wonderful references. I am looking for a family that would be accepting of me bringing my 5-year-old son along (I have been doing so for 5 years and it has worked out wonderfully). I am very experienced with multiples, and many children at once. I love starting with a family with infants/young children and developing relationships with the family by staying for years. I am very organized, punctual, silly and loving. I genuinely love children and believe Kids are my calling. I am very comfortable with Read more pets, I grew up with a mini zoo. I'm very active and love planning projects and fun activities.
