Hi - My name is Jazzmyne and I'm currently a full time nanny. I am offering part time child care, senior care, and household services. I love being a nanny and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids (including twins!) since I was 15 years old. My responsibilities have included driving to/from school, crafts, tutoring, and even dance lessons. I am allergic to cats but happy to work with families with dogs.
