I have a B. A in preschool through 3rd grade. I was a preschool and special needs teacher for several years. I worked as a Development Specialist for Early Intervention working w children 6 months to 3 years old. I've been in childcare for the past 20 years. I find working with children a fun and rewarding experience. When I became a nanny I started with a 4-year-old Downs Syndrome boy we were together for 2 years until they had to move. I've cared for school age children, infants and toddlers. I've been caring for a 3 1/2-year-old little girl, I began caring for her when she was 3 months old and now she's off to preschool ! I like to do arts and crafts and use puppets while we read, sing, play and work on those milestones and preschool skills Thank you Susan :)

    (Review Continued): Susan is full of energy and love. And she is extremely helpful. She would take my son to the park (even though he can be very hard to handle in public), to speech therapy, or anywhere else I needed him to go. From beautiful arts and crafts projects to changing dirty diapers, Susan can do it all. Her energy and warmth was always a pleasure to come home to. Not to mention she was great with my four rambunctious dogs! She would sometimes arrive early just to take them out on a walk. She is kind, fun, caring, and patient. Unfortunately, we had to move across country. I wish I could have taken her with us! She supported me and my son during one of the hardest years of our lives, and I don't know what I would have done without her! She will be truly missed. If you are looking for help with your child, you cannot go wrong hiring Susan.
