Hello, My name is Irene. I am currently a paraprofessional. I work with special needs children at a local blue ribbon elementary school. I have been in this position for two years. In addition to this, I babysit an adorable kindergartener two days a week. Previously, I was a nanny for four years with a wonderful family of two children. Sadly, this post ended due to the family relocating. Both jobs I found on Sittercity! Prior to that, I was an infant room teacher for eleven years at a well known and highly respected preschool. I left to become a nanny. I did this inorder to work fewer hours to attend my children's extra curricular activities. I am originally from London, England. I am a married mother of three adult children, three cats and one dog! I also care for my brother-in-law who is special needs. After so enjoying staying Read more home and raising my own children, I decided to persue a career in child education. I absolutely love working with children. It is so rewarding and fun! I am CPR and First Aid certified with a clean drivers license. Many thanks for reading!
