Greetings All Parents, I am a United States Army Reservist who is a certified and experienced childcare giver. I am looking for a great family to to be a part of and can easily adapt to different household environments and pets. With my experience of almost 5 years working in a childcare setting, I can most certainly multi-task with managing more than one child at a time. Nannying to me, is always the fun part of any childcare job,. As a nanny and former preschool teacher, I managed an educational curriculum with exercises that made my class as fun and stimulating as can be. Childcare is the fun with out the school ambiance; allow me to personally introduce myself and let's have some fun!

We needed some short-term childcare and Lydia was fantastic. She was great with our three month old twins as well as our four year old boy. She is also just very pleasant to be around. We would hire her again in an instant!
