Meet Andrea

  • Comfortable with pets

Hello, my name is Andrea. I am a single mom to an active and silly 10 year old boy. I started babysitting when I was in middle school for family and friends and loved working with children so much that I continued through college and after. I have over 25 years experience working as a nanny and have also worked as a behavioral therapist for children with varying disabilities, a preschool teacher and boys little league baseball coach. My availability is flexible and I offer weekly rates. I love reading, arts and crafts, playing outside, gardening, cooking and helping to make your life easier! I am happy to help with light housekeeping and running errands as well.
