  About Me
 
I have raised 2 children, and am active in the lives of my 2 grandchildren.

Raised in San Diego, Ca., I am used to the outdoors, and am quite active.

I am experienced with children from birth- age 16, professionally. I also have combined being both nanny and house/manager duties.

I have a special love for teaching. I have read all of Maria Montessori's books, and find her insights inspiring.

I have enjoyed being a nanny for the past 6 years. The work is both rewarding, and challenging. I try to adapt to the family's needs, as we all should be on the same page. I use natural consequences, as a rule. Also, I use my sense of humor to communicate, whenever possible. Children seem to respond well to these technics. I adapt my creative teaching to the individual child(ren. )
