I bring a lifetime of hands-on caregiving experience. Growing up with seven siblings taught me responsibility, patience, and adaptability at a young age. I began babysitting at 14, progressed to nannying and housekeeping by 16, and have since supported families with dependable, attentive care. I also have extensive experience with pets of all types and ages and currently work in professional animal care.

$18 per hour for 1 child

Hi, my name is Patty. I have 25+ years of experience with children. I am an honest, loyal, hard worker and loving person. I’ve worked in the same center for 25 years. I taught in a classroom and handled office duties. I now nanny for a schoolteacher so I have summers off. It brings pure joy to teach children new things and see the smile on their faces because they learned and accomplished something new. I love to teach, craft, have fun and love up your kiddo. I have a lot to offer your child and keep them busy. The best part of my day is to see your little one smile. I have all 5 clearances, mandated reporter certificate and health, safety and nutrition certificate. I also went to HACC and took some classes.
