I truly love working with children; I have worked in almost every aspect of child care. I have worked in social work settings , been a nanny, worked in after school programs, infant/toddler schools, preschools, ran birthday parties, co-ran reading help working shops, worked administratively in preschools, and much more!!! I have been a nanny for the same two families for the past three years, taking care of children from the ages of infantry up to nine years old. I believe that structure and clear expectations are very important for children. This being said, I also believe in helping children to become as happy as they can be through educational and innovative activities. I want to help children to learn how to be as independent as they can be, while still making sure that they know that I am always there for them. I will always be there to help Read more them learn how to accomplish a task, give them a comforting hug, and push them to find what their passions in life are. I am CPR/first aid certified, with a specification for children 6 and under, preschool teacher certified, and infant/toddler teacher certified in Massachusetts.

This is an update to a previously posted review. After several calls and emails, we did receive a very nicely written note from Margaux who had a reasonable explanation for her lack of communication. While we have moved on with another sitter, I'd encourage others to give her a fair shot.

We had a scheduled visit with Margaux and she didn't show up for the interview. After some concern, we texted and called her two times without any response after 2 full days. Very disappointed as she sounded great on paper. It is clear that she lacks professionalism based on this behavior alone.
