Summary
Dedicated and compassionate caregiver with a unique blend of childcare and clinical nursing experience. As a trusted nanny for the Duncan family, I have fostered child development, ensured safety, and provided a nurturing environment with patience and empathy. My role as a student nurse in clinical rotations, especially during my preceptorship on the pediatrics floor at Lawnwood, has strengthened my ability to deliver high-quality patient care, communicate effectively with diverse families, and adapt to fast-paced healthcare settings. Passionate about supporting both children and patients with warmth, attentiveness, and professionalism.
