About Savannah

Experience: 5 yrs

Hi there! I am a previous art teacher turned nanny with over 9 years of experience working with children. As a nanny, I have 2 total years of experience working for two families of two boys (youngest at 10 months and eldest at 4. 5). I am skilled with potty training, creating sleep plans and starting pre-school. My degree included training on the developmental stages of early childhood, social emotional learning, behavior management and conflict resolution. I apply this knowledge with my parenting style of "Love and Logic". As a teacher, I worked at Bowen Elementary in Kentwood Public Schools teaching all grades (4-12 years old), as well as NHS and other schools in GRPS. I am comfortable caring for children of all ages. I am previously CPR and First Aid certified for all ages (including infants) and am excited to implement art lessons and activities developmentally appropriate for your child. I have my own transportation and live in the Heritage Hill area.
