Trained through an approved NCSA School and mentored by Nancy Hamm, founder of the NCSA, I have decades of experience in child care. I’m CPR certified, and am an approved Vendor for the Palm Beach County School System which means I have an up-to-date, nationwide, Police and FBI background check on file with the authorities here in Florida.

Here is a little bit about me:

I am a bit old-fashioned when it comes to children as I have an aversion to exposing them to television, iPads and other electronic devices in the early years of development. I prefer interactive activities that focus on increasing motor skills, enhancing language, promoting exploration, and basically just having fun doing stuff.

My experience with babies & children started very young. My mom noticed how I spent all my time with the babies and younger children at our weekly social gatherings and set me up as a Mother’s Helper at age 8, (as I was too young to actually babysit). I would care for the babies and toddlers while the mom’s went about their housework, etc.

I continued babysitting throughout my teen years and eventually went on to be a live in nanny. I completed my NCSA Approved Newborn Care Specialist and Nanny training through Gentle Ventures in January 2016.

I still can’t get enough of children & now that I find myself in my 40’s, with no kids of my own, childcare is fulfilling for me on a whole new level.

My favorite ages are newborn to 9 months, and the age of the “Why?” stage.
