More About Me

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

In addition to raising my own five children, l operated a licensed daycare for over 15 years, caring for up to five children at a time-from as young as two weeks old to age four and beyond. I provided full-time care, structured routines, developmental activities, and prepared nutritious meals and snacks daily.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love reading with children, exploring nature, dancing, singing songs, arts and crafts, and engaging in imaginative play. I also enjoy organizing simple learning activities and sensory play tailored to their age and developmental stage.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part of being a nanny is building trust
—with the children and the parents. Creating a safe, loving, and consistent environment where children feel seen, heard, and cared for lays the foundation for their confidence and development.

My experience with special needs children...

While running my daycare, I
cared for children with a range of developmental delays and sensory processing challenges. I believe in adapting to each child's individual needs and strengths and partnering closely with families to provide consistent, patient, and supportive care.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments was helping a shy toddler blossom into a confident little leader. Seeing her light up with pride after learning to put on her own shoes and helping younger kids made me feel proud to be part of her growth.

Seymoine W. - Seeking Work in Lakewood

Babysitter Available in Lakewood, CO: Seymoine W.

I originally started being a nanny about 4 years ago. I was pregnant with my second baby. It was a high risk pregnancy so I couldn’t do a lot of other work. My baby is very healthy and active these days. I have a history in nursing and will be going back for it soon. Thanks to the history I was First Aid,CPR, and AED certified. Due to my history in nursing I have worked with disabled people. I had a set of twins I used to care for who were Autistic. I also have a nephew around my babies age who is autistic as well. I used to be a school teacher. I taught 8th grade math. I currently have an 18 year old that I’m seeing off to college in another state this August. I do like the flexibility of being a nanny and have always loved working with children. When I continue nursing I will specialize in working with children. If you want to know anything else just ask.
