I am a 45-year-old mother of two children who are now 22 and 24. I also raised three other children who came into my care at ages 6, 8, and 10 for 8 years, the children presented with high needs that required extra attention and sensitivity. I also ran a dance studio for over 20 years with children ranging from 10 months to 18 years. Many of my former students have gone on with successful careers in the dance world. Having owned a cleaning company, I am well versed in the importance of organization, structure and detailed housekeeping. Cooking and baking are part of my skill sets. I am patient, able to assess safety and behavioral concerns quickly with creativity, and am knowledgeable of several strategies to help with multiple situations that can occur for children emotionally. I have my own vehicle with 2 million coverage, multiple safety certificates and a desire to meet each child and family where they are at attending to your needs with discernment for each individual's consideration. My nanny style is fun but structured. Youth are magnetized to my personality and easy-going, love-filled, calm but energized presentation.
