I was a live-in English teacher in Spain in 2012 for 11-year-old triplets. In Boston I was a full time Nanny for 3 boys age 5-12 for 3 years. Most recently I was in Oregon working part time for two families with 3 children under 4. I am attending UCSB pursuing a masters in Child Psychology. This past summer I became certified as a Wilderness EMT through NOLS in Wyoming. I have worked with infants to high school ages, I was a surf instructor and a lifeguard for 8 years In Santa Cruz, California. I also used to volunteer in the nursery at my church and often had up to 10 2& 3-year-olds. With 10 years of experience under my belt I have worked with many different types of parenting styles, I love to teach and am willing to do some light house work mainly for the children. I am Read more punctual and have amazing references! Feel free to give me a call, text, or email if you have questions.
