Hello, my name is Shirin! I have worked in home health care and babysitting for nearly 30 years! I have taken care of children of all ages up until and recently a 6 year old with Down syndrome. Working with a child with special needs for many years has been an enriching experience for both of us! Currently, I’ve been nannying the last three years in Brywn Mawr. From 2 weeks old to nearly three, I have been blessed to work with a wonderful family who have entrusted their youngest to my care. I also take care of his older two siblings who are both under 5. I am certified by the state and federal government for child care. Prior to working in home health care, I was a kindergarten teacher working for the nuns of the Convent of Jesus and Mary. I have worked both for private families and Read more professional agencies. I have numerous references I can give! However, despite my 30 years of professional work, the greatest experience I’ve had is being a mother of two myself. References from all families and agencies are available upon request! Driving is no issue! Money is flexible!
