  About Me
 
I come from a large family, and since my teenage years I have been both taking care of children and the elderly. I am an experienced nanny and home health aide, and have formed lasting relationships with all my previous employers. I love to read and swim, and to be outdoors as much as possible. I enjoy teaching my younger charges about gardening and art and music, and have taught several previous children how to read. I have an engaging, enthusiastic personality, and I believe both myself, and my clients, have been better off for the time we've spent together.
