Since moving to this area 5 years ago I have worked as a private nanny for various local families. I have cared for children of various ages, including a set of twins.

A. from SUNY Geneseo. I am currently C. P. R. and First Aid certified, and have been so for the last 18 years. Over the last 25 years in my work with children and families, I have worked as: a private nanny, as the director of a child care center at a large ski resort out west, as a pre-k teacher in one of the oldest operating nursery schools in the US, and as a VT State certified case manager. I have both current references and references Read more that date back 25 years. I have been married to my husband for 32 yrs. and together we are raising our teenage twins.
