I am a nanny. I am a mom of 2 adult children who have their own lives, and I also have a grandson with special needs. He is our miracle baby. So I have some experience with him. I have always loved children, and my sister calls me a baby whisper. She says I have a way with them. I will love your child the same way I love my own.
