A little bit about me

I grew up on an Amish farm with six younger siblings, so I've had a lot of experience caring for and watching children. I love children, and I have a strong work ethic. I am 22 years old - I left the Amish community when I was 21, which is why I don't have my driver's license yet. Amish only do school through eighth grade, but when I left I took the GED test and passed with flying colors, so I have a highschool transcript now. Right now I have a job working in food service in a retirement community, and I've made a lot of great relationships there. I love people in general, and love working with them. I'm somewhat quiet by nature; I'm not overly talkative, but I'm not shy either. I'm used to working hard on the farm, and my coworkers say I'm a hard worker at the job I have right now too. I adapt well to new situations, and I'm pretty laid back and easy to work with. There's still a lot I don't know about American society because of my background, but I'm very teachable.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I helped care for my six younger siblings all through growing up

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

Reading to them, doing crafts with them, playing card games, board games, running games, you name it - I love playing with children! Coming up with new games together can be fun too. I have a seven year old cousin I play with and one of his favorite games is pretending he's a policeman and putting me in jail! I also enjoy taking walks with children, drawing pictures with them, telling them stories...and the list goes on.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important thing is to care for the children the way their parents want them to be cared for - which means listening to what the parents want, and being willing to learn and adapt. Another really important thing is to make sure the children are safe - and after their safety is taken care of, helping them stay happily occupied is the thing to focus on.
