I am a down to earth, thoughtful, and patient nanny with over 13 years of experience with children. I love spending time outside, cooking, and reading. I have experience with children of all ages, from newborns-late teens. I enjoy providing developmentally minded activities and outdoor adventures, as well as documenting their milestones, while ensuring that they are always kept safe, healthy & happy. I am able to easily identify and provide assistance in all areas of the household to help ease unnecessary load from busy parents, so they are able spend free time with their child, rather than having to worry about tidying up, preparing meals, doing laundry, etc. Raising a child takes a village, I get great fulfillment from being a reliable and constant beam of support for the whole family so they can live happier and healthier lives!
