Hi, and thank you for reading! I just recently relocated back to the Boston area. I graduated from the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. with a degree in education studies in 2009. I lived in the Washington metro area for 5 years after college, and worked as a professional nanny and babysitter. All of my child care jobs In the D.C. area were booked through Barbara Kline, the founder and president of White House Nannies, INC, the premiere nanny agency in D.C. As I am the eldest of five children, I began babysitting at age 10 for my own siblings, and have continued babysitting ever since then. I am certified in first aid and CPR. I have extensive experience working with children who are on the autism spectrum, and have also worked with children with Down Syndrome. Additionally, I have worked at a day care center in the Read more infant and toddler rooms, and was a YMCA summer camp counselor. I love working with children, and I have never looked at it as "work." When I am babysitting/nannying , I believe I am patient, caring, cautious and fun. My other interests include, traveling, foreign languages, mediterranean food, art, cities and ballet. Thank you again for taking the time to read this, and please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any further questions! -Margaret
