Hi! I'm an SB native with over 35 years of experience in child care. I worked as a Nurse Apprentice (working alongside but below an R. N and above a CNA) while I was in nursing school and spent a year in Pediatrics which was my favorite part. I gained the greatest experience as a mother myself and raised the two most incredible young men on this earth. I owned and operated an in-home daycare for almost 11 years. I do what I do because I truly love children; playing with them, having fun, making each child feel loved and fostering their individual interests in a safe, warm and nurturing environment. This helps me when I create age appropriate curriculum for each child. I'm CPR and First Aid Certified for so ages. I'm calm and patient while also being enthusiastic about creating the basis for a lifelong love of learning. I have impeccable references and I'm very flexible. I look forward to hearing from you!
Shannon was great! She babysat for us one night while we visited Santa Barbara. Our toddler has a mini meltdown as we left and Shannon knew exactly what to do to calm her down before bedtime.
