I have been a nanny, live in, mothers helper, sitter and pre school teacher over the past 6 years. Before then I helped my mom run her small daycare or helped care for the children at church while the parents had meetings. I have taken child development and illustrate and write childrens books as a hobby. I know infant/child cpr and first aid as well as how to make baby food, sterilize bottles and toys. I love helping others and have always seemed to have a connection with children. I also love animals and have a 3 year old dog that I raised since he was 7 weeks old when I rescued him. Even when I was a kid my self all the younger ones would call me mommy or come to me for advice or help. Children have always felt safe and comfortable around me and I have a Read more lot of respect for them as well. From there I realized I needed to be a good role model and accepted and learned to love that responsibility. I found my first full time nanny job at 15 in my schools job book. Even then only using a bus for travel I knew my priorities and was always punctual. It was also a nanny share job so a lot of trust was put into my hands at a young age which I appreciate a lot more now that I'm older. Once I graduated high school I became a live in nanny for a 10 month old boy. It was a 24/7 job and one of my fondest memories. Working with many different families and many different children I gained a lot of patients and adaptability working with different personalities, household rules and schedules. What I can say I've learned from my experiences is that, child or senior, we all want and need to feel appreciated. I believe the way to make the most of anything is by sharing it and this is my way of sharing my life with others. If you'd like to know more I'd love to hear from you. Thank you for your time and best of luck in finding the right person for your family.

Priscilla has been great! She's a natural with our 3 month old, who is less fussy with her than with us! She's self sufficient and even though both my husband and I are working from home, she's excellent at giving us space and entertaining the baby without being disruptive. She's also been flexible, prompt, and communicative. We definitely recommend her!

Priscilla has watched my infant son 1 times in the past few months. She is hard working, professional,polite and friendly. She took great care of my son. Made sure that he had his feeds on time, that his diaper stayed dry, that he was comfortable :-) I highly recommend her, as she is excellent!
