Hello!

My name is Shira, I'm 28 and from Bethesda Maryland but just recently moved to Ellicott City in August with my boyfriend and our two dogs Sage and Chloe. I am a graphic designer and photographer and do most of my work from home.

I have been watching children since I was about 13 and love the imagination and creativity that comes with young kids. I just finished a long term (2.5 year) full time nanny position with a lil girl who will be attending school and aftercare full time come the fall and I am looking for a full time position.  Two years ago I cared for children of two families on a daily basis as well. I have experience with children of all ages,  I have cared for a 18 month old a few days a week and then a 4,6 and 9 year old a few days a week. I have experience driving kids to actitives and of course managing and holding playdates!

I am excited to have kids of my own in the near future, but can't at the moment, so I love watching others kids and making sure they have a great time, sans television. We will play games, play outdoors, I'll teach them how to use my camera, iPad/iPhone if you would like them tutored in any technology, and I can always help with schoolwork.

I love little kids and have experience with children from 3 months+.
I do of course have terrific references but would prefer not to put their contact names and numbers out in the open, so let me know if you would like their information.

I do have my phone number listed, so feel free to call me if I seem like a good fit! I look forward to meeting you and your family :)

Thanks!!

Shira arrived right on time, actively engaged my 3 and 5 year old for 2 hours, gave them a snack, cleaned up the toys after they were done and got the kids ready for bed, pull-ups and all. The kids had a great time & it was wonderful just to be able to put them to bed and not have to clean up the toys or dishes. We look forward to having her sit again! - Alison W.
