I am a career nanny looking for a full-time, live out job in New York City. I have more than twenty years of experience with an extensive background working with infants, pre-school, elementary and high school children.
My past duties have included all aspects in a child's life- from creative play to taking the child to doctor appointments,arrange playdates, encouraging creative play and arts and crafts and as a child grew, my job has morphed along with the child's needs. I am very comfortable with all ages, as I have worked with children from ages 6 weeks to the teen years. I think kids are amazing and being with them as they grow and learn and develop into the individuals they're meant to be is the most rewarding job one could have. I believe that the child comes first. I come from an art background. I live in the East Village
