About Colleen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have a son that was born in October 2023 and would like him to come with me. I have over a decade of childcare experience in multiple situations; as a mother's helper, in day care centers, WFH situations, and when parents go into the office. Ages 3m-14yrs. I have been responsible for up to four children at one time with their age ranges being 5 months to 8 years old. I have also worked with twin infants in the past. I did have some assistance from their grandmother but I would be caring for them on my own for most of the day (they were 10 hour days). What I love about childcare is seeing how kids grow and develop into their own personalities, and yes I believe that begins in infancy. I would have to say infants and toddlers are my favorite age group to work with since they keep me busy and I really enjoy the nurturing aspect of caring for them. I like focusing in on emotional intelligence for toddlers and keeping them busy through imaginary play and non-screen activities.

Colleen served as a nanny to our 2 girls (ages 9 and 11) for 11 months. Her duties included picking them up from school and driving them home or to after school activities. Additionally, she played with them, assisted our 9 year old with school projects and prepped dinner for the family. I would recommend Colleen to any family looking for a fun loving, reliable, conscientious caregiver to their children. We moved out of state and hence had to say goodbye to Colleen, but our loss is someone else's gain!
