I have years of child care, babysitting and nannying experience, starting with having 7 younger siblings and two working parents. I also have babysat for multiple families with young children from the age of 13 to now (23 years of age). I have 12 months of experience working as a youth worker, working with children in the foster care system, children who are homeless or at risk of, and children who are in residential services. I have experience working with challenging behaviors, complex needs, and children and young people from birth to 18 years. I truly love working with children, they have such an innocence and optimism that I appreciate and enjoy.
