Nanny Taylor

3 years experience

A little bit about me

Hi my name is Taylor! I just finished my freshman year of college at Ohio University as a Pre-profesional Biology major. I would describe my self as caring, energetic, and patient.

I like working with kids because I find it rewarding to build connections with them while creating a fun, supportive space where they can be themselves, learn, and grow!

One thing you should know about me is that I am energetic and ready for anything your child throws at me. I love facing challenges (even meltdowns) with a fun yet beneficial learning type of approach with redirection. I am also more than happy to work with children who have special needs.

My skills include that I am responsible, patient, and have good communication skills whether it comes to parents or children.

If you need any more information feel more then free to reach out! I also have a care.com account as well with a background check in needed! https://www.care.com/p/taylors23054/cc
