Hello. My name is Shahna. I am 62 years old. I know that many applicants chose to write AI assisted bios, but I still prefer to speak from my own heart. I love working with children. I retired from teaching in the BPS (special education, pre-k, kindergarten and first grade). After retiring, I spent five years working in daycare/early childhood with infants through school-age children. Although I no longer want to work full-time, I want to continue to be active and do something meaningful with my time. I feel that it is very rewarding to play a role in a child's development. I am very gentle and nurturing. I strive to give each child the same attention and care that I would expect for my own children and grandchildren. I would love to talk to you to see if I might be the right fit for your family.
We cannot recommend Shahna enough. She’s watched our baby since she was three months old. She was so patient and understanding with her and helped her through each milestone. She is so kind and has such an open heart. She is also punctual and understanding of our time. You will not regret hiring her for a second!
