I am a 27-year-old female with many years experience as a care taker for all kinds of individuals. Everyday I push myself to be as patient and creative as possible with the people I am working with. Currently, I am working as a nanny to two boys (6 and 8). I have been working with them since my move to Maine two years ago. I love keeping active and creative at work! Prior to my current employment, I spent 5 years working with children ages 8-22 residential at a special needs school. While here I planned and coordinated many after school programs involving science and art. I took care of all aspects in the home such as cooking, cleaning and hygiene. I also took part in many off campus activities. I was even chosen to go to Disney World 1:1 with a student! I have also worked as a caretaker for an elderly client. On top of this, I also currently work part time as a dog walker! I am a very well rounded, caring and reliable caretaker!

Colleen was an excellent caregiver for my young son! She has great patience with children and animals and is easy to communicate with. She also cared for our dog at the same time which worked out wonderfully. She was great to have in our home and we recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, trustworthy, nanny!
