About Susan
Experience: 10 yrs
My experience with young children began with babysitting while in middle school. In high school, I taught Creative Movement to 4-5-year-olds for four years. During that time, I found I was able to determine each child's educational needs and create fun ways to engage and teach them using movement and other activities. As an aspiring professional ballet dancer, I nannied for various families during my undergraduate studies. I cared for up to four children at a time, ranging in age from birth to preteen. While dancing professionally, I regularly supplemented my income by nannying and babysitting. Prior to attending graduate school, I spent a year working full time as a day nanny for one family's infant. While in graduate school in New York City, I served as a date-night nanny several evenings each week, taking care of a couple's infant and toddler. I genuinely miss the interaction I enjoyed with infants and children, and look forward to working as a nanny again.

Susan and I have had both a professional and personal relationship for over 10 years. Everything Susan does is done with the utmost integrity and care. She is reliable, trustworthy and always gives 100 percent to each job while leaving that personal touch that sets her apart from others. Susan has a gentle touch with my pups, especially my 7 year old dog who is a rescue, full of nervousness and uncertainty. She immediately got down to her level and let her take her time in being comfortable. By the end of Susan's visitor Brooklyn was laying belly up, smiling enjoy Susan's tummy rub. My children also have spent time with Susan over the years beginning as toddlers to now teens. Susan has been a great mentor to my son who is now 16 and begun exploring career paths and college options. I have watched Susan interact with them snuggling as young children but also nurturing them as pre-teen and young adults. I cannot say enough about Susan on both a personal and professional level.
