Hey Y'all, my name is Cassandra (Cassie). I'm originally from Pennsylvania but have been an Austinite for almost 7 years. I come from a huge family with 18 nieces and nephews so patience, compassion & love were instilled at a young age. For my first 6 years in Austin I was a lead PreK teacher managing curriculum, field trips, swim lessons and a class of up to 24 students as well as working with children varying on the spectrum and ADHD. Due to covid hitting hard last year I switched over to nannying for two former students of mine. they have since returned to school full time. I am now nannying for an amazing family I met through Sittercity! Growing up, I was a Girl Scout for 15 years as well as a camp ambassador, a peer mediator in school for 6 years and the Vice President of SADD. Through Read more the years I've carried over a lot of those same values I was taught at a young age and pride myself in encouraging children to be kind, independent and confident.
