As an experienced caregiver and nurturing individual, I bring a wealth of life experience, dedication, and compassion to my role as a nanny or companion. I am a proud mother of two wonderful teenagers, and for the past 10 years, I have been a devoted stay-at-home mom, honing my skills in creating a warm, structured, and loving home environment. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling from Marquette University and am a former Army Captain, where I developed leadership, adaptability, and organizational skills. My background includes being a former Girl Scout troop leader and an active school volunteer, fostering strong relationships and contributing to my community. I am First Aid certified through the Army and have taught first aid for the American Red Cross, ensuring safety is always a priority in my care. I have a deep love for reading, hiking, and spending time outdoors, which I enjoy sharing with Read more children to inspire curiosity and a connection with nature. I also delight in cuddling babies, caring for pets, and bringing companionship to seniors who might need a listening ear and a kind heart. With a little dog who brings joy to my home and a love for creating meaningful connections, I am passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment for children, families, or seniors needing companionship. Whether it's creating engaging activities, fostering a love of learning, or offering a calm and steady presence, I am committed to supporting the needs of the families I serve.
