About me

I am active/sporty and university educated. I grew up on an island in the Caribbean called Grenada. I am the second born of nine children. In the Caribbean, the oldest children usually have a lot of responsibilities which include taking care of their younger siblings. Even in most recent years, I have taken care of my nieces and nephews. My father owns a radio station and I've worked for him in many different capacities for most of my life even while attending school. I graduated high school at age 15, accomplished an Associate's Degree at age 18, a Level II Certificate in Construction Technology at age 21, worked with a design company and my father for a year then went on to achieve my Bachelor's Degree in International Business at age 28. I continued to work for my father and then started my Masters's Degree in business marketing. I only completed a year of study and had to stop due to financial restraints.

I got into child care only after I was doing Home Health Aid with very senior seniors. I started babysitting because I traveled a lot and wanted short-term employment that paid okay. I knew I was great with children and since I had all this experience with my own siblings, I thought I'd make a great sitter. Once I started sitting though I proved to be really adept at caring for and bonding with children. I loved being with them and doing activities with them. And since I have not been able to have any children of my own, I live vicariously through my work.

At the moment I am working on self-improvement so that I can be a better nanny and an asset in multiple capacities. I am currently learning Spanish, I work out often and I keep up to date with my CPR Training. In the fall I will be starting a personal training course and then a real estate course in January. In two years I plan to start my teacher certification programs. I drive really well - I've had a license for 16yrs - and have experience driving children, I can swim well enough and can supervise kids in the water. I am also a sportswoman and can participate/train with the children. I've traveled often and I actually enjoy experiencing new places.
