Hello! My name is Lara, and I'm a behavioral specialist who is looking to nanny full time (40+ hrs/wk) for a single family. I worked with an NGO that assisted children with behavioral needs and their families that were in the Social Services system so that they could live healthy, happy, and balanced lives. I have experience assisting youth from kindergarten to 18 years of age. I believe that the best approach to behavioral work is in the home, and with a whole and rounded approach to the realities of life (and with everyone in the family involved!). I am a musician who has played a range of instruments for over 18 years and I want to bring music into your home! I can give lessons as well. I'm also interested in doing light personal assistance, cooking, and cleaning work for the right family. I have camp counselor experience so can handle multiple kiddos at once. Even if you feel your child doesn't haven't behavioral needs, I'm still interested if the fit feels right! =)
