I am continuing my career as a Nanny because I love nurturing and caring for children, I find great rewards from the time and effort I spend working with children.

Alma Hoosier has been with my family for over two years. We are moving to the Suburbs and sadly she can't make the move with us. She has been with my youngest from day one and my oldest since she was 2 1/2. We love Alma like she is part of our family. She has been a huge help for our family and loves my children like they are her own I could not ask for anything more. I highly Recommend Alma. In the two years she has been with my family she has never called in sick or late. She is very hands on with my children. Alma helped potty train both my children. She is a pleasure to work with.
