Hi! My name is Pam and I am semi-retired. I have an Etsy and TPT shop, so I am very flexible. I worked as a Community Manager Trainer for an Independent Senior Living for 6 years. When my children were small, I worked in childcare both as a teacher then Director. I also cared for my parents in their senior years. I have always had rescue pets. Currently, I have a soon to be 17 year old rescue who is doing great enjoying life! I look forward to meeting you and finding out how I can make your life simpler and worry free!

Pam is incredible! She has extensive knowledge and experience with children and loves to incorporate learning in such a fun way

I am excited for any oppurtunity to nanny/take care of children! I am patient, engaging, kind, and optimistic. I am passionate about making sure that children feel cared for and that they're not just sitting around with someone who is only there to watch them. I am currently working towards my masters in clinical counseling at Charleston Southern University, and I know from study and experience that the early years of life are the most important. I am great with pets and am willing to help with them if needed.
