I have been a Pediatric Triage RN for over 25 years and the Mom to two grown boys. I've always loved being around children and love the idea of entertaining, teaching and keeping children safe and happy while their parents are away. As a very young child (starting around age 10) I spent summers as a mother's helper with my aunts and their many children, babysat and nannied as a middle schooler and high schooler, and of course have cared for my boys and our friends' children while they were growing up. I am very comfortable with food allergies. Having finished two concurrent temporary nursing positions, I am now looking to fill my time with something more fun and flexible.
