Are you looking for a great and responsible babysitter? I am kid tested and mother approved! My name is Laura. I am a part-time nanny and a graduate student majoring in mental health counseling. I was a former high school special education teacher in the Boston Public Schools and have a masters degree in special education and school psychology. I have over 15 years of experience with children ranging from infants to teenagers. During my time with your children, there will no sitting on the couch and watching tv. I will have your children doing things whether its arts and crafts,reading,or outdoor activities. I believe that is a way to develop a rapport with the children and discover their interests.
