I am considered by most who I work with to be a modern day Mary Poppins. I am a mom and nanny by day with over 18 years of experience under my belt, and when I am not busy helping grow and nurture the children of others, I relish my moments as a mommy and home-schooler of an 8 year old boy. I am actively involved in the local nanny and childcare community, and I am always working on continuing education in my field. I pride myself on being able to think outside of the box, bring humor and fun to any family I work with, and on my creativity and energy. I work to make every day and every task a learning experience. I chose to work with children because nothing, to me, is better than the joy and excitement on the face of a child who is learning Read more or discovering something new about the world around them. I believe in challenging children to be creative thinkers, and work to provide structure without limits.
