Hi! After graduating from UConn with my Bachelor's in Human Development & Family Studies, I was a nanny for 3 amazing girls, who became like family. Before, during, and after college, I worked with infants, toddlers, and children of all ages & with special needs. I have been a supervisor and teacher at multiple childcare centers in CT & worked at a hospital childcare center for 10 years which unfortunately closed. My family moved to SC in 2020, built a house & I started work as an Early Interventionist in the Myrtle Beach area for 3 years, helping young children work on developmental skills. I am now a mom of 3, and my sweet little girl is now 1-year-old. Baby girl would benefit from some new friends! The older two are very busy with competitive baseball & gymnastics. My summer availability varies, I am always willing to drive kids to Read more activities, and can be flexible depending on your needs. I'd love to have your kids over to play! Reach out and I can answer any questions you may have! I am also open for babysitting on date nights!
