Experiences

I have professionally provided childcare for more than 25 years. I began working in childcare centers which enabled me to continue learning how to positively encourage the development of children. Building on my experience as a babysitter, then professional childcare worker I continued learning and moved forward to caring for individuals with unique and specific needs. I began nannying for individual families about 10 years into my professional childcare career. As a nanny I have gained experience assisting parents and caregivers in providing care for their children. I have experience caring for children of varying ages, learning abilities and developmental needs. I seek to continue  providing positive, constant and encouraging development and support to children and parents.

I have developed  my skills in household assistance and management. I am able to provide a clean and safe environment for children's learning.
