I am a mature woman who has worked as a nanny and babysitter for many years. I have a BA in Human Services. I worked with special needs children in a facility much like a nursing home,only for children. I worked as a Teachers Aide for many years. I also worked on an adolescent psych unit for five years as a counselor. I worked as a nanny for a severely disabled little girl., which was, actually, my favorite. I recently worked as a Nanny during the day, five days a week, taking two children to school and activities, bathing, dressing, and nurturing, however,I am no longer interested in daytime, nanny positions.
