Dear family, If you are reading this thank you for considering me to be apart of your family! I don’t see nannying as a job, for me it feels like taking care of family of my own. A little bit about my experience, during high school from 10th-11th grade I would volunteer at an after school program that I attended for elementary school. It opened up the doors for me into the world of childcare. From there I got my first paid job as a camp counselor at Asphalt Green Summer Camp, I worked with the age group of 4-6 year olds. It was a particular experience that has brought me to where I am at now. I’m currently an LPN (licensed practical nurse) and in in school for my RN. As an LPN the ability to work in child specialized fields is limited. That’s what pushed me to go Read more back to school so I can work in pediatrics. Nannying while in school would be the perfect experience for not only me but your little ones because I’m passionate about my field and providing the best care possible. I would love to discuss more, I appreciate you for your time and I hope to hear from you!
