Hi New York Families, I am looking for a full time long term (1+ years) position starting in May (or two part time positions). Here's a little about me: I lived in NYC for two years taking care of twins with learning disabilities and ADHD. After that, I moved to Portland OR to study psychology and work as a nanny. Now, I am moving back to NYC for good to work. Here are some of my qualifications: - 10+ years of experience with children - BA in Education - AS in Psychology - CPR and First Aid - Safe Water Course - Extensive Experience with Special Needs (ADHD, Autism, Learning Disabilities, Speech Delay, Angelmann Syndrome) - Experience with all ages - Comfortable with meal prep and household management - Great References from my current nanny family + all families I worked for before (5 families, including the ones I worked for in NYC). I'll be happy to chat more if this feels like a good fit
