Hello, My name is Sandra. I have been a nanny for the past 15 years. I have been with a total of 3 families in those 15 years. And in that time I have the joy of watching twins from the time that they were 6 weeks old until their 4th birthday which is coming up in December of 2016. While I was there I also cared for their sister who is now 6 and then a new baby that was born in November of 2015. Before that I watched 3 sisters for over a year. I left my job when we were told that my husband had less then 6 months to live. I took on the job of making sure that he was happy . My very first nanny job was a family of 6 children and I was with them for 5 years. During that time I was a mentor, cook, taxi, nurse, as well as jack of all trades. I am happy to say that I still have ties to these families and they come and see, or text me on a regular basis.
Sandy became a part of our family for the almost 4 years she worked for us. She cared for my twin boys since they were first brought home from the hospital (they will be 4 this year), and was with us still for the birth of our now 9 month old daughter. Our children absolutely love Sandy (especially our youngest twin who wanted to stay and live with her when we had to move). Being a dual military family Sandy was our God-send, super flexible, understanding, and reliable. Our jobs require us to be on call, work unexpected hours, and even overnight, but we knew we always had reliable care for our children. I can't express enough how much we wish Sandy was able to move with us! You and your children will love her!
