I am a passionate, loving, compassionate, responsible, energetic Professional Nanny with years of experience caring for preemies through Kindergarteners. For the past year I have been loving on a sweet 1 year old; the 3 years before I made memories with a hilarious 4-year-old, after spending 2+years with adventurous boy/girl twins. Prior, I was engaged in a 3-year journey with preemie twins and older sibling. I was lead care giver in an infant classroom at a licensed day care and lived 6 years at a home for at-risk children in Costa Rica serving as Preschool Founder/Teacher. Hanging out with little ones is my heart’s passion; what fills my love tank. As a single woman, with an inherent nurturing nature and personality, nannying allows me not only to generously give out but to selfishly receive from my little ones in return! I enjoy being a part of enriching the lives of Read more children by loving them into reaching for their greatest potential in their own unique learning style. I am organized, detailed and proactive with a keen sense of what else can be done to make my nanny family’s time together the best possible. My daily goal is to return my nanny babe and home in the best condition possible so my nanny family may enjoy focused quality time together. I give my all when with my nanny children, then retreat to the quiet chaos of home with my Golden Retriever pup and a cranky old cat. I plan on nannying for as long as my body and mind cooperate -which I plan on for a long time to come! I hold a BS in Child Development/Family & Consumer Science.
