Hello Sittercity parents. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. A little bit about myself, I started full time nannying when I was 19 to save up for college. While all my friends were in universities, I was caring for children. Looking back, I value and appreciate that time. I was able to gain a different set of life skills, being around youngsters, as I had responsibilities, which my peers would not have had to think about. Flash forward to a few years later, I got a job with the D.O.J. and graduated summa cum laude with a bachelors in science. As far as experience I have cared for newborns, toddlers, elementary school, middle school as well as high school. I believe it is important to have a strong support system, as I learned this through experience and through a development psychology class. Children are like sponges Read more and of course need all the love and attention we can give them. I currently am in grad school and no longer work for the government. I am studying for my M.B.A. with a focus in marketing. I have had the pleasure to work for many different families in the past. This motivated me to push harder in my academics, as being around working professionals and seeing their hard earned success. I do hope I may find the right family and of course I have references and many stories to share. I look forward to meeting you!
