A little about myself.  I am a married mother of 3.  My youngest son is 29.  I was blessed with 2 more children, a son and a daughter when I married my husband 11 years ago.  I am also the grandmother of an amazing 5 yr old granddaughter from my youngest son. I will try and be as brief as possible as far as my work experience.  For 14 yrs I was employed with the Jersey City Board of Education as a Teacher Assistant working with children with special needs, (mainly children with autism).  Shortly after marrying I  worked briefly for the North Arlington Board of Education in the Special Ed dept., until I left to care for my mother-in-law until her passing. I then chose to go on my own mainly because I liked the intimacy with working with families and children so closely.  I am a strong advocate of positive reinforcement.  I Read more have used it in the past and will continue to do so as I have seen the positive results.  I have attended numerous workshops during my employ with the JCBOE in this area because of the children I worked with.  I have always worked closely with families and make sure that we are all on the same page as far as discipline and so far it has been extremely successful. I have worked with multiples. I worked with a family with 3 boys, 2 month old twins and a 2yr old., so I definitely have learned to multitask.  I am also extremely comfortable with newborn care. Realizing that in todays economy people struggle with the cost of day care....I can offer a solution to this....It's called a Nanny share.....If you and a friend or family member are in need of day care, I will come to you.  .  With Nanny Share you will get top notch care without the super high prices.  One child is normally $16.00 to $18.00 per child....with Nanny Share you will get a discounted rate 2 children $12.00 per child, per hr.  3 children 10.00 per child per hr.  (THESE PRICES ARE ONLY GOOD FOR A NANNY SHARE) Individual Rates   one child $16.00 to $18.00 per hr. Nanny Share Rates    2 family nanny share                $12.00  per hr.,  per child                             3 family nanny share                $10.00  per hr., per child I will be more than happy to supply references upon request

Sue has been an amazing nanny for our twins for the past year. She started with us when our twins were 2 months old and will be with us for a few more weeks. We are moving across the country this month which is why we will no longer need her. Sue is extremely loving, patient, and kind. She loves our twins like they are her own. She is very trustworthy, and I always know that they are safe in her care. Our twins absolutely love her and are so excited to see her when she walks in the door! Sue is very flexible and reliable, which was very important to my husband and I as we both have busy work schedules. She is also very efficient and would clean up the play area and do the twins' laundry while they were napping. We will truly miss having Sue as part of our family. We absolutely recommend her. Any family would be lucky to have her!
