Hello, I have been working part-time as a babysitting/nannying for 2 families. Due to my clients' life-changes, I am again available full-time or part-time to support the right family/ies. I have a Bachelor's Degree, CPR, First Aid, and all clearances. I most enjoy taking care of newborns, but find that I enjoy each stage of growth when the bond has grown from infancy. I value learning as a priority, reflected by 13 years of commitment to schooling three of my now adult children. What a blessing. I am proud of them all as two of the three have graduated from college. And the other, along with her husband, has brought my dear grandson into my life. I am a nurturer, who loves to learn new things myself, so it comes naturally to explore the world with those I influence. I enjoy teaching, play the piano, sing, draw, paint, cook, bake, read, knit, and create new, fun experiences. I am willing to give overnight care to newborns to give parents a good night of sleep several times per week if/or as needed. References are available on request. I hope to learn more about your family. Kendra
