Hello I've been babysitting and nannying for over 11 years now. I have worked in a variety of settings with young people ages 6 weeks to 20 years old. Through YMCA programming and have run teen programming for a large city in MN. I have had experience working with young people of various races, ages and cognitive abilities. currently work for a national foster care and adoption advocacy organization, where I have the opportunity to work with many young people and families. My position allows for a lot of flexibility and I am easily able to work remotely, which allows me to be flexible to meet the needs of your family.
