She is extremely intelligent, sociable, kind, and can be very focused.  This family does not allow any screen time so they prefer she is being engaged and active each day. She loves going to music classes, the Tot spot, parks, the train park, and the Phoenix Children’s Museum. Their new nanny will need to be very active, intuitive, and willing to plan fun and creative activities for her each day.
