Meet Candace

Hi There! My name is Candace, and I'm a 23 year old art therapy graduate student at Marylhurst University. I'm taking a semester off and looking to work as a part or full time nanny! For the past few years I've been working as a counselor for adults and youth with mental disabilities. But my passion for working with children and families has me looking to switch careers for the time being. I have years of childcare experience, with children ages infant-12. I have worked as a teacher's assistant at a day care, a camp counselor and a counselor for toddlers with physical and mental disabilities. On top of working as a babysitter throughout high school. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. Needless to say, I am compassionate, hardworking and great with kids! I would love to get to know you and your family and see if we Read more would be a great match!
