Meet Poppy

I am a senior in college studying social work. I have been babysitting for 9 years and have worked with every age from 3 months old all the way up to 17. I have spent the past 3 years nannying for 3 girls every day M-F but they are now all grown up! I have also interned/interned with several foster care agencies and worked in small groups with children aged 1-16, as well as one on one with a couple kiddos with special needs. I have also volunteered tutoring kindergarten through 3rd graders in math and reading. I am a big dog and cat lover and happy to help out with animals too!
