Greetings Parents: Look no more, you have found the perfect nanny! I am just leaving a family of newborn twins who are now one. And I live in Delmar! I am a college graduate of Siena College with two degrees. I left a twenty year career in Social Work, working with at risk children and their families. After which by happenstance I was referred to a young couple with a newborn who were overwhelmed with a colicky baby. My early career in Colorado was both student and labor, delivery tech working primarily with moms from admission to discharge. Their babies were my primary focus as I had hoped to become a midwife. Life happened, I fell in love we moved to New York to marry and we never left. I continued in labor and delivery and the newborn nursery but never finished my degree. I have two adult children whom Read more are now working professionals, both insist I continue nanny work because they have no intentions of making me a grandmother! Isn't that sad? But, I love my career now, your hours are perfect and I'm available to meet at your convenience. I Look forward to meeting, Lady Di aka Diane Cassidy Richie xxx-xxx-xxxx
