I'm seeking a full/part time nannying/teaching or daycare assistant , in the West Melbourne area. I have been blessed to have worked at several schools, daycares , and with many families that I’ve private nannied for, throughout my career, in New Hampshire, Vermont, and Long Island, N.Y. Two years ago, my husband and I purchased a home here in Florida. We immediately fell in love with the weather, and met so many wonderful friend’s in our community, that we decided to make Melbourne, our permanent and primary residence. We attend Calvary Chapel Church and our five year old now attends CCA. Our 19 year old son is busy pursuing his career as an electrician. My husband is Director of Facilities & Infrastructure and agrees that moving to Florida was one of the best decisions we could have made, for our family. Now that we are settled here, I’ve decided to Read more go back into teaching, nannying or working in a day care setting because it is what I always not only excelled at, but truly loved doing, throughout my professional career.
