Realizing the various stages of child development, I work cooperatively with the family to engage their children in positive and constructive activities. I provide the type care that I myself would want for my children, playing with them, and giving them encouragement and guidance as they discover the world around them. Along with my 20 years of professional experience, I can also offer you: * An Associate Degree in Early Childhood Education * A Certificate in Basic Child Care * A Certificate in Infant & Toddler * A Certificate in Child Care Administration * CPR & First Aid * SIDS Training * Child Care Credentials 1 & 2 * A TB test and Physical Examination * Certification in Massage Therapy * A Background Check * Excellent References I also have lots of other various documented child care related training, and am a member of the (INA) International Nanny Association.

I am a 6th grade teacher in Bridgeport and am the mother of an 11 year old boy. I grew up in Greenwich and have lived in on the west coast, in Australia and England over the last 30 years. We have recently moved back to Ct to be closer to my family as my son grows up. I would be happy to take care of your children while you work, travel or just take some free time. I have a flexible schedule after school and on weekends. If the time and situation works well, my son would love to come with me and play with other children around his age too. I have a safe, reliable SUV and am fully insured. I'm happy to take the children out to play in the garden, at the park or the beach, play board games or arts and crafts at home too. I limit my child's screen time and am very happy for yours not to be on them while they are with me either. I have a pediatric first aid certification which I am scheduled to update soon. I have local references in Darien, Fairfield, Trumbull and Greenwich. Please feel free to email or call with any questions.
