Meet Shana
- Comfortable with pets
I absolutely adore children! I have been caring for children ranging from infants to teens both with disabilities and without. I was a nanny for 2 boys starting at ages 11 months and 3 years, for 2 years. I have previously been an assistant toddlers teacher at a Montessori school as well as the full time substitute for 3 years. I have a BA in psychology and am currently in school part-time to become an Occupational Therapy Assistant. I am a Behavior Technician working with a child who has autism. I am off for the month of January and am available to help families who need or want some time off from taking care of their children. I change diapers, play games, do crafts, go on walks to parks, am comfortable with pets (but am severely allergic to some cats and small rodents). I am comfortable taking the families car Read more or driving kids to activities in my own car. I have a safe and clean driving record and can take kiddos to fun (free) activities around the neighborhood! I am looking for something short-term, but would love to help if I’m able to during the school semester! I look forward to meeting you and your family!
