I am nurturing, kind, fun and have strong ethics. I have worked for various nanny agencies for a total of 10 years, primarily with infants and children ranging from age 2 weeks to 12 years old. I have also worked with children and adolescents with high needs as a youth care specialist/ residential counselor. I have a great range of experience and believe in taking all leads, directions, asks from parents. I also believe in meeting the needs of the children, safety is my number one priority and I am naturally caring and supportive. I enjoy cooking and being outdoors. I love pets and have the ability to adapt easily to all environments
