Meet Sheila!

Aloha!  My name is Sheila, and I am originally from just outside of Boston, Massachusetts.  I have been living on Oahu's North Shore for a number of years now, having moved to Hawai`i in 2006.  I have been caring for children for over ten years, beginning as the family babysitter.  I have sophisticated my skills through multiple positions, including pre-school assistant teacher (providing sole responsibility for up to six children at a time), Autism skills trainer, as well as a private family nanny, in addition to various babysitting jobs.

I received a bachelor’s degree in Speech Communications from the University of Hawaii in May 2011! My hobbies include hiking, going to the beach, spending time with family and working out! I work at a local, public elementary school as both a health teacher and intervention reading and math teacher for children who are struggling to meet the standards. It is an incredibly rewarding and fun job, as children are the most open-minded, active and imaginative folks around! As a nanny I am always sure to strictly…
