Booked by 2 families in Burlington, WA

Hi! There is no sweeter thing to me then lending a hand to allow families to spend valuable free time making memories. I love to cook, host dinner, run, write and play outside in all kinds of ways. I recently completed my masters in elementary education and while I find the classroom to be a never ending adventure, I am eager to find a role where I can use more of my skills as a household helper. Ask about my experience as a nanny (infant to elementary age), work in multiple professional kitchens, as a housekeeper, and within the nonprofit education world!
