Hello! I am Mom, Nurse and former childcare provider. I have been a nurse for over 20 years in a family/pediatric setting. When my children were younger I briefly ran a daycare from home in addition to private nannying in peoples home. I supported the attachment parenting style with my second child and hosted La Leche League meetings out of my home. I wanted to become a breastfeeding consultant but ultimately went the family practice nurse route. I have decided after a rough year and a half working in healthcare during Covid to try something new. I have been doing Covid testing on cruise ships and on film sets the past year. I am the happiest I have ever been! I think spending time with families and their children will be a fun and rewarding experience! :)
