I have enjoyed being a nanny and babysitter for children infant-twelve years old. I love children and enjoy caring for them. As a nanny in prior jobs, I cared for a child 6 months-3.5 years old. I provided all aspects of childcare including meal preparation, transportation, light housekeeping, outings, laundry, shopping and errands.
