Hi! I'm a caring, dependable nanny with over 4 years of childcare experience, including working at a Catholic school and caring for children from families in my son's school community. As a single mom to my wonderful 11-year-old son, I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can thrive. I genuinely love working with kids and enjoy helping them learn, grow, and feel supported. I'm also an animal lover and a beekeeper, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and a deep appreciation for nature. I can provide excellent references from the families I've worked with and would love the opportunity to care for your little ones as if they were my own.
