Hi! My name is Tess and I am currently a fill-time kindergarten teacher. I am looking for summer work as a nanny and/or babysitter. I have over a decade of experience working with kids ages 2 - 14 in both school and home settings. I am caring, compassionate, creative, and very good at working with kids through conflict. I am first aid and CPR certified through 2016. Because of my background and training in elementary education, I am also available to provide tutoring and academic support to your children, should you want it. I love cooking and playing games, as well as being creative and going on adventures.

Tess has worked with my two children, ages 6 & 8, for the past few months. My children have special needs. I trust Tess completely and my kids love being with her. She is kind, caring, and intelligent. When I come home Tess is usually sitting on the floor playing with my youngest son. Tess has picked the kids up from school a few times and that has gone just fine. She also feeds our two dogs and lets them outside, and is fine with the variety of pets we have. I recommend Tess 100%!

Tess is wonderful! She plays so well with the kids and truly enjoys being with them and they LOVE being with her. She is always on time and is a great communicator. Glad we found her!
