I'm Debra the "Nanny Granny". I have over 20+ years during my work career. Since retiring I have volunteered with 2nd graders for 3 years. I than decided to become a nanny to have a longer relationship with families with young children. My passion in life is spending time with children and watching them grow. I've worked for three families during the past 3 years. I'm fun, active, reliable, trustworthy, caring, patient and flexible .I was trained by Michigan State University in child development and nutrition. I'm first-aid/CPR certified.My last full time position was with Girl Scouts where I trained leaders, planned and implemented summer and after school programs. I'm able to handle anything that may arise in a calm and safe way.
