Experience: 8 yrs
Hello! My name is Erica . I recently moved to Rhode Island from Richmond, Virginia. I graduated from Longwood University with a bachelors degree in psychology, and am continuing my education currently for a masters in counseling education! Over the past 8 years I have worked as a lifeguard, in a nursery at my local church, as a special needs attendant, at a daycare, and most recently a nanny for an 8-month-old & 2 yr old the past year up until I moved. I have always had a passion for teaching and caring for kids, by providing a fun, nurturing and loving environment for kids. As well as, ensuring that every parent is confident that their child is safe and well cared for. I have had my CPR and first aid certification for working as a lifeguard and at a daycare. I am looking for a long term nanny position. While in school, I am completing it online and have flexibility during all weekdays. I can care for up to 3 children of all ages; newborn to 12 yrs old.
Erica helped us for two date nights during our weeklong stay in Newport. She was very responsive, communicative, and had a pleasant personality. We felt good leaving our 11 month old in her care.
