Hi families! I’m a former au pair and professional nanny of 4 years. I have 900+ verified hours as a volunteer at a daycare in South Africa. I’m a quick learner and can easily adapt to new routines and responsibilities. I do have a valid driver’s license with driving experience in all weather conditions and different car types. I am comfortable around small dogs and friendly cats. I am comfortable with light house cleaning(light sweeping, dishes, light laundry, tidying up) and can assist with homework. I am a bit silly and fun but always within reason. If needed I can whip up quick meals too!
