I am a reliable, responsible, well-educated caregiver certified in newborn and infant care, basic life support for infants, children, and adults in search of job as a nanny/ babysitter to supplement income since I retired from a 30 year professional career as a pharmacist. I worked full-time as a nanny for my last family for 3 years, but their youngest child started preschool and they only need me occasionally.My strengths as a childcare provider are with newborns, infants, and toddlers. I was a single foster mom to a 16-month-old I’d had since birth. He recently moved to his adoptive home. He was premature, drug exposed and required a lot of special care, which I handled on my own while working as a nanny for children ages two and four I am fully Covid vaccinated, CPR and first aid trained. If I can tackle the challenges presented as a single foster Read more mom, I can handle anything. I am also available for weekend babysitting. I currently work part-time at a church Mother’s Day Out program with toddlers. I’m the lead teacher in the 12-18 month old class. I had a background check through SitterCity and the church. I’m usually available on short notice.
