Hi there! 👋 I have extensive childcare experience and absolutely love working with kids of all ages. For 7 years, I was a full-time nanny for a wonderful family with four children, which gave me hands-on experience balancing different ages, schedules, and personalities all at once. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and fun while also keeping things safe and structured.
