Italy - from May 2024 until May 2024 View allDescription
Hello! I am Juliet, known to my friends as Nana JuJu. Walking and going to the beach are two of my favorite past-times. I am an avid gardener, an animal lover, a culinary educator, writer & artist. I share my home with my husband, our 20 year old son, 3 cats and 4 dogs. My friends and former employers would describe me as dependable, funny, flexible, calm, affectionate, resourceful and helpful. I speak English, Spanish and Guarani and am learning Italian. While I am older in age (59), I’m definitely young in spirit and strong in body! I love babies and seeing the results of my labor. At one time, our blended family had 7 children, ages 10 months to 20 years old. I’ve raised a bunch of teenagers and have worked as a nanny, birth and postpartum doula and as a breastfeeding peer counselor. Therefore, pretty much nothing phases me! I am a hard worker, a non-smoker and very clean and tidy. You can get a glimpse of my world on Instagram at nanajujusgardens. I look forward to hearing from you! Peace.

Gardening gives me so much joy. I have half an acre and honeybees which we care for without herbicides and pesticides. I can use many hand tools as well as a chainsaw. I'm a great cook and enjoy having people share a meal with me. I was in the Peace Corps in Paraguay which is where I met my husband. Therefore, I have experience living in someone else's home, and adjusting to their lifestyle. I've been a nanny for the last four years, and love babies and toddlers.
