I specialize in the respectful care of infants and toddlers. I am a credentialed teacher, and I have many years of experience as a nanny for children ages newborn preemie to 12 years. I owned and ran my own Family Child Care for infants, toddlers and preschoolers in Sonoma from 2001-2003. I was a nanny in California and Texas, from 1999-2001, 1995 and 1990-1993. My duties included: Caring for and nurturing toddlers and infants, including preemies and special needs children, planning and providing 3 nutritious meals daily, bathing and dressing children, planning and taking children on outings and on errands, laundering children's clothing and bedding and communicating clearly and effectively with parents and children. Since and during that time, I have taught PreK and a Montessori infant classroom, owned and operated a family child care and taught as a bilingual reading specialist. I just updated my CPR and First Aid Read more certifications. I would like to add additional work to my current regular nanny job. I am available weekends and occasional weekdays.
