Hi! My name is Keryn and I am a 32 year old living in Boston. I am a certified Elementary School Teacher with my Masters Degree looking and am currently a 3rd grade teacher looking to pick up occasional weeknight and weekend hours. Before I became a teacher, I was a nanny for a few different families in the area. I love planning activities, both inside and outside, where I am always stimulating the child's mind while ensuring that they are having a fun and safe time. I have also worked as a full-time nanny for a family of three children under eight years old. During that time I was the head of household, running errands, cooking, cleaning, drop off and pick up, and making appointments. My experience in the Elementary School classroom has given me the tools and knowledge to help assist your child grow in whatever skill area Read more that may be. I have an overwhelming amount of resources to make each day enriching. My experience in nannying children ranging from newborn to ten years old, as well as being an aunt to five children all under the age of 6, has given me the natural abilities needed to best create a loving and comfortable environment for your family. If you would like to speak with my former families about my abilities I would be more than willing to share their information with you. I am excited about this adventure and look forward to speaking with you soon! Keryn Thorvaldsen
