Hi thank you for taking the time to read by bio. I have been in the childcare field for 30+ years. I am infant,toddler and preschool certified as well as my course of study at college Human Services. I have worked in many childcare centers as well as having my own in home child care center for 10 years. I chose to instead leave the child care center setting and persue being a full time nanny. I am the second eldest of 7. As long as i can remember I have always wanted to take care of children. I remember as a young kid helping my mom care for my younger siblings. Over the years I have had the chance to not only travel within the United States and Europe but also many times to the Carribbean. Most recently I had the chance to travel to Haiti to provide food and medical relief to the people. Read more I fell in love with the country and it's people most especially the children. It was so heart breaking to see the children living in such horrid conditions such as the filthy tent cities.  During college I had the chance to go to Kentucky into the Appalachian Mountains and volunteer with doctors and nurses to help the people throughout the area. I again fell in love with all the children. It was so sad see how poor they were.Children without winter clothes, no shoes. I felt I must do something about it so I called my mom and asked her to please ask her  friends and parishoners from our church to donate clothes. A huge truck arrived and their were many happy and warm children. I was thrilled! I also became very close to woman who's age was 100 or close to that. She taught me how to make homemade bread and to this day I still make it. I asked her one day if she had ever been ill and she said NO! I asked her what her secret was and she pointed to her pipe and her jug of moonshine at her feet! She was an amazing person.  So the reason I want to be a nanny is because I totally adore children. They are our future. We can teach them well as they can also teach us. I would be honored to be part of your child's{children} life and watch and teach,help them grow along with loving them dearly.  

Trust & safety
