I have been a Professional Nanny for over 10 years. Previously I was a preschool teacher for 10+ years. I’m currently working in the school system specifically special Ed. I am also a mom I have experience with ages birth on up to teen. I also have experience with children that have special needs ie developmental delays, autism,speech delay, sensory, food allergies, and seizures. I implement a safe, happy learning environment that helps focus on each individual child’s growth and development in social, emotional and cognitive areas. Daily tasks I can help tend to are meal preparation , feeding, diapering, toilet training, self help skills and tidying up after children and with children.
