Nanny in Newmarket, Ontario

Hi there! I LOVE children and have a passion to see them reach their fullest potential. I believe it's important for children to be surrounded by adults who don't just have experience with children but have a big heart for seeing them loved, safe, grow, and be happy. You have to be able to relate to their level, and encourage their unique strengths and gifts!
