Hello! My name is Lauren and it's great to meet you! A little about me...I am 50 years old with an amazing 29 year old daughter. I was a teacher for 25 years and a care provider for people with disabilities on the side. For the last 5 years I have been a full time nanny to a family with 4 kids who were newborn to 6 when I met them and now they are all in school full time. Time sure flies when you're having fun! I am very laid back and patient. I am organized, self-motivated, and very reliable. I can manage schedules of all kinds; feeding, sleeping, diapering, and I'm not afraid of the occasional blow out! I am very light hearted and am not afraid to be silly, get messy, or try new things. I love meeting new people and get along with just about everyone Read more including animals. I will follow your parenting lead but teaching is in my blood so I'm also able to take initiative when needed. My schedule is fairly flexible so when life happens I can go with the flow and I won't run out the door as soon as you get home. I am CPR/First Aid certified, hold a current fingerprint clearance card, have been vaccinated, have taken Article 9, and have current car insurance. I am happy to provide any proof you need and am willing to take other trainings you may interested in. I look forward to the possibility of meeting you and even if that never happens I wish you well!
