I have always been comfortable with children in any situation. In a room full of people, I gravitate to the children first. Children are so open and friendly, and they warm up to me quickly.
I have spent almost 10 years in childcare, and another five as a tutor and day camp counselor and supervisor.

I have always been comfortable with children in any situation. In a room full of people, I gravitate to the children first. Children are so open and friendly, and they warm up to me quickly.
I have spent almost 10 years in childcare, and another five as a tutor and day camp counselor and supervisor.
I enjoy nannying for one family at a time, where I really care about the family and the children, and likewise. I nannied long-term for two separate families, and stayed with each until I moved to a different city, in both cases.
I also worked as a camp counselor for three summers, and one additional summer on the lead staff for the camp planning programming for the kids. I tutored elementary and high school kids in History, elementary math, and English writing and essays.
