My family having an orphanage in Haiti, I was always around younger children and babies. I learned early on how to change diapers, bathe the children, play with them, and put them to sleep. Learning these things I was asked to babysit at a young age, parents knowing that I had years of experience they felt comfortable leaving me with their children. I started to first babysit when I was 13. Since then I have been babysitting for many families in the Sonoma county and Napa area from newborns to teens. I now am studying to become a music therapist for children at San Francisco State University. I am a psychology major and a music minor. I am also volunteering with a organization to help children deal with grief. These children have lost parents, siblings, grandparents, other family members or friends and are given a safe space and the proper tools to properly grieve. My role there is to bring music into these children's lives, with various instruments or singing songs all together.
I have had the privilege of knowing Nanette since infancy and watching her grow into a loving caring and compassionate young lady. I have seen her interact with children that were in her care, with her nieces and nephews. She loves children and in turn they gravitate to her. The best example I can give of Nanette's character is personal. I recently had a health setback. Nanette's care, compassion and support was invaluable I could not have done it without her. She would, beyond any doubt, be an asset to your organization.
