I have been at my current job as an infant teacher for over 21 years. Before that I was a live in nanny on the East Coast for 10 years. I love children but infants are my favorites because I get to see a lot of their firsts like rolling over, crawling,etc. I get to help shape the person they will become. I am trained in CPR and First Aid and my job does background checks every couple of years on the employees.
