Summary

I am an energetic, engaging, and patient nanny looking for a long-term live-in position. I am extremely mature, responsible, and have experience with multiple children and nanny share. I love reading, music, art/crafts, and creating positive social environments for children in my care. I am a reliable and cheerful person with excellent childcare and interpersonal skills and experience as both a live-in and live-out nanny. I love children, love caring for them, find them fascinating, and am seeking further nanny work to continue doing what I love and broadening my experience.
