About Lauren

Experience: 10 yrs

For the past 7 years I have been working with families in the North Shore as a Nanny/House Manager/Family Assistant and Professional Tutor. My experience includes 20 years as a classroom teacher where I taught math, art, English, language arts and a drama/music class to 7th grade students. Over the course of my life I have obtained a black belt in Taekwondo, became a certified personal trainer, certified aerobics instructor and am now learning tennis. As an enrichment specialist, I enjoy bringing things to engage children in creative inside play such as crafts, games, puzzles, baking, drama and music. As a physically fit person, I enjoy being an active participant in outside play with the children so will play tag, basketball, volleyball, street hockey and swim. Some of the things I do is help the children with their homework, prepare delicious and healthy meals, maintain the family calendar, and plan a variety of family events.

Lauren is extremely trustworthy and hugehearted. Her every decision is based upon what is in your Family's best interests. She has an incredibly strong moral Compass, is extremely hard working, dependable and a fun and positive person to be around. She made our lives so much better in more ways than I can express. I can't recommend her highly enough.
