Hey!
I'm looking for a nanny job (or occasional babysitting) with a loving family while I'm studying in school! I'm CPR certified and completed my CDA certification! I have a clean driving record and am comfortable driving kids. For the last year I've been working at a preschool and babysitting, but sadly have to leave since...
I love animals! I have lots of animal experience due to the fact that I have 2 boxers, 1 shepherd mix, and 2 cats. I'd love to take your pup for a nice walk and have lots of play time!
