Hello, I am just now getting back into the workforce, as I have been a stay-at-home mama for 8 years. . Though I am with her all week, I miss caring for other children as well. Being that my spouse is home weekends, it allows me to do what I have always been passionate about! I have over 20+years experience working with children of all ages/stages. I have been a teacher, teachers aide, paraeducator, nanny and of course a mother. I have lived in Portland for the last 12 years during which I have been a nanny for a now 13 year old girl, and also an 8 year old boy, whom I adore! Though I no longer nanny for them on a regular basis, I have remained close with both of their families. I have two degrees, one of which is in child development. I also have a BS Read more in Psychology, which I find helps me in a lot of situations…especially with my own daughter:) I am easygoing, personable, communicative, loving, honest, and am a bit of a neat freak! I love to learn, grow and explore things around me. I don't pretend to be anyone but me, what you see is what you get!
