I am a primary care pediatric NP and I currently work at a private boarding school in Wellesley, MA. This means I have the luxury of having summers off! I am currently studying to become dual certified in mental health/ psych, so I do not have the time for a full-time job this summer. However, a summer away from kids is too long for me! I would love to fill up my summer with some part-time babysitting/ nannying. I have been a pediatric NP for 4 years now, and I was a pediatric RN for 3 years before that. Needless to say, your child will be in incredibly safe hands!
