Hi families! After two wonderful years with my nanny families (currently in a nanny share), the youngest two are off to full time pre k! And I am searching for a great new family! About me: I am 30, and I live in Minnetonka with my husband, our cat and our dog. I have been a nanny for 13 years. I am CPR, First Aid and Swim Safety certified. I have extensive experience with newborns, preemies, twins, juggling multiple children at once, and children with ADD, ADHD, ODD, SPD and more! I am big on outdoor play, scheduled activities (such a gymnastics class, swim lessons, music class), imaginative play, arts and crafts, and reading! What I love about my current position: we are free and encouraged to explore. We check out as many new parks and attractions as we can find, we go to the pool multiple times per week, Read more they encourage play dates, creativity and learning through play. My nanny families have excellent communication, they treat me really well, and they trust me. I am hoping to find these characteristics in a new nanny family, too! I am available to start in September, and I can be flexible on a start date! I am a non smoker, I have a safe and reliable vehicle with third row seating, and come with excellent references. I am looking for a long term position with a family who pays legally and I am more than happy to discuss the rest!
