As a mother of three, and a grandmother of eight, I have had children in my life as long as I can remember. They are all grown now and I haven’t nannied full-time for five years and I need some young children in my life! I enjoy spending time with little ones, and I love doing crafts and other things with them. I’m not a fan of too much electronics, but I can always find something fun to do with them.

Hi, my name is Carolee (but my littles know me as Mimi) and I’d love to learn more about taking care of your child. I was babysitting as a young teen and then I was a nanny for 15 years to take care of my granddaughter and a nanny family at the same time together. I love to do crafts, I love nursery rhymes, and singing, and just being silly with little ones! my youngest granddaughter is 12 and I’m looking to have some younger children in my life again. As a mature woman, I have a great work ethic, I will never let you down. If you are interested, please contact me and we can see if we’d be a good fit!
