Hello my name is Karena and I am an experienced nanny that is looking to be a part of your family. I am first aid and CPR trained with an associates degree in Early Childhood Education. I have Nannied for around 2 years with two different families. My duties as a nannies were meal preparation, supporting the children as they hit their developmental milestone, planning activities that are age appropriate and light housekeeping. Before my journey in nannying I was a toddler teacher. During my as a toddler teacher, I was also a Summer camp counselor and a teacher floater so I have experience working with all age groups. If chooses to nanny for your family my goal would be to ensure your child is in a caring environment that supports them in learning the foundation they will need to thrive.
