I have been a nanny for over ten years, since my special needs son started high school. I have cared for infants and toddlers, but have experience with all ages, as I was a teacher for ten years as well as raising my own two. I have a B.S. in psychology, with a special interest in child development. I love pets,too. I enjoy taking the children out in the community, having fun and I try to avoid t.v.. I believe in patience and allowing children lots of time, for I feel they live in a very hurried world today.

Debbie was our nanny for a few months this summer. She was reliable, trustworthy and very nurturing and caring to our 5 month old son. Debbie supervised daily tummy time, sang and read to him as well as taking him to the park and story time at the library. She was very proactive in her approach and always has the child’s education and development in mind. She will be a great addition to your family and will treat your child as her own.
