Hello! My name is Nicole :) Due to my love for the arts and the outdoors my care provider style consists of providing art and play experience along with experiential learning and growth. I encourage the outdoors, exploration activities, museums and cultural centers whenever possible. I have completed graduate level courses in a Masters program in Counseling and Art Therapy and received my BA in Art and Psychology, with prior concentration in Elementary Education. As a previous youth school program coordinator assistant my future goals are set on providing assistance to children in need of a positive environment. My interest in caring for children arrived at an early age when my sister and cousins were born. I began babysitting by the age of 13 and have been nannying part-time for roughly 10 years. Overall I have 14 years of experience caring for newborns up until the age of 12 and Read more I am capable of handling multiple children, caring for sick children, light house cleaning and meal prep. My rates reflect min and max rates in consideration of weekends and holidays. I am definitely a lets meet in person individual and am readily available for phone interviews.
