Summary
Exceptional Nanny with experience for over 23 years supporting daily success and health of children of varying needs and interests. Versatile and adaptable in conducting errands, cooking, changing diapers and entertaining children according to parental specifications. Reliable and supportive member of house operations, assisting family as extenuating circumstances arise.
I have served a lot of families in the Bay Area. My love for helping people and babies made me decide to transition to be a Postpartum Doula.
