I have a lot of experience, while growing up my mother owned a daycare for 8 years which I assisted her and had responsibilities with children at an early age. I was also a registered nanny through an agency for 2 years after I graduated from college. I have worked for several different families over the course of 15 years, their ages range from 6 months to 14 years of age. I now have 3 children of my own and I have come to realize that being a mother is the most important thing I could possibly do. I approach childcare as a nurturing and caring person. Children are a gift from God and we are privileged in raising them to be the best people they can be. I have excellent references and am flexible with your schedule. I am currently a therapist for an autistic child. I am very patient, Read more caring, and dependable. Your child's needs always comes first. I truly enjoy what I do and what I gain from being a nanny and a therapist.

Shelley has recently started babysitting my two kids on the weekends and occasionally on week nights. Both of my kids really like her, they talk about reading stories and singing songs and they look forward to seeing Shelley every time. I checked her references and everybody spoke very highly of Shelley. She is a great babysitter.
