Welcome to NannyTales.blog, a guide with helpful tips and tales about parenting and childcare. At the age of seventy a call from my daughter pleading help for a friend led me into my most fulfilling career. Over the next fifteen years I worked as a nanny for eight families and twenty-two children from the ages of five months to eighteen years. I loved watching them grow and develop and learned something from each and every one. I hope my years of experience as a school teacher, nutrition educator, mother, grandmother and nanny will help you in your parenting journey. Please feel free to ask me any question you have about parenting or just leave a comment. I look forward to hearing from you.
