Hello, my name is Rowen!
I am a fun and energetic person, who truly loves working with children. I have experience nannying, as well as teaching music (specifically violin) to children. I am looking for a position that allows me to tutor a child and help with remote learning, teach music/violin, or nanny.
I started working with kids in my early teens. I have been a babysitter, au pair, nanny, and a 1st-5th grade teacher's assistant in addition to taking care of my now teenaged son.
In my spare time, I like to read, bake, cook, travel, hike, do home remodeling projects, gardening and spend time with family and friends.
