Meet Tessa

  • Comfortable with pets

I come from a family of 11 children, so I began babysitting and basically raising children from a very young age. I started nannying as a job at the age 16 and have been working with families on and off for last 14 years. I also surf professionally on the side, competing in contests and doing a little travel as well. I have taken child development classes in college and am very passionate about our youth. I love helping children learn through hands on projects, outdoor learning as well incorporating some type of physical activity daily. CPR certified and Covid Vaccinated.
