Nanny, Teacher

Taking care of kids is my passion, I grew up taking care of my baby brother at the age of 8, while I had a working mom. I made a decision to work with children both special needs and non-special needs children because I know how it is when you need the help at home. Kids are so precious, and I do cherish them a lot.
