Nanny in Toronto, Ontario

I have had many years of experience taking care of children and since my own daughter is grown and out of the house I am looking to take care of others children. Being a single mother for most of my daughters life, I understand the hardships parenting can bring and it is my hope and pleasure to make any parents life out there less challenging. For many years I had my own business, broadening the minds of children ages 2-6 as well as tutoring on the side for elementary school levels, teaching kids to have fun learning. I am a driven, strickt but kind woman and hope to hear from you soon!
