About Joan

Hi there! Currently looking for a full time position in September, 2026. This app won't let me update my profile, please feel free to ask. I have a BA in psychology with an emphasis in child development. I did my internship at a daycare center, have worked in several different day care centers in the past and volunteered at a school/hospital for special needs kids. I have been a CASA volunteer (advocate for foster kids), raised four kids and as you can see from my background, absolutely love kids. I have been with my previous family, nanny to 3 energetic boys, for over 4 years. I occasionally watch an autistic young woman, and had the privilege of taking care of a wonderful 86-year-old woman. I also take care of animals when people are away, have had many pets of my own. I am energetic, yet calm. Knowledgeable yet always approach things with an open mind. I am open to all age groups, have a flexible schedule and would be honored to watch your children and pets.
