Hello families! My name is Rachel Ford, and I live in Johns Island, SC (part of CHAS. County) with my husband of 5 yrs, (who is in his final year of law school-yay!), and we live with our 2 miniature daschunds named Mosby and JoJo. I have a masters in special Ed from college of charleston and a bachelors in Paychology also from C of C, and have been taking care of children my entire life. From being the oldest sibling to various sitting services, to a sitter in church nursery to currently working for Guardian Angels Sitting Service also, I have 3 years experience nannying a family that began with a 15-month old, and progressed to a pair of adorable brothers, aged 2-4. They would go out of town and entrust me with everything: food, bathing, dressing, driving them to friends' birthday parties, etc., and it was so much Read more fun! I am currently CPR/first aid certified, have been a substitute teacher, reading interventionist, tutor, and most challenging yet rewarding of all, an ABA lead therapist for children with autism for several years. I have seen it all, and would love to contribute to a relaxing night out for you and the knowledge and comfort that your child(ren) are in great hands! Please don't hesitate to contact me with any further questions or needed references. Thank you so much, and I look forward to hearing from you soon! Thank you! Sincerely, Rachel S. Ford 843-229-1159
