More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
After working as a nanny in a private home for more than 2 years, I worked as a preschool/PreK teacher for a local childcare center. I had to leave the childcare center after the pandemic hit. In addition to these years of experience, I also volunteered at the Apple Blossom Children's Learning Center throughout my teen years. I have babysat for several families and maintain long lasting relationships with all of my prior charges. I look forward to beginning a career in early childhood or elementary education in the future once life returns to normalcy.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love to read with children, create art projects, sing and dance, and make messy science experiments! ( always safe and cleaned up afterwards!) I love to play games and create games. I like to create scavenger hunts for the children and engage the children in activities that inspire imagination, problem solving, riddles, and fun!
The most important part about being a nanny...
Learning about and understanding each individual child as well as the family as a whole in order to create a successful and stress-free partnership with the family. That is critically important! In addition, a good nanny must also understand the parenting style of the parents and echo that. A nanny is a partner, there to support the family's needs and I take that position very seriously. Making the homelife less stressed for the children and the parents is an important part of being a nanny. I also feel that enriching the children's lives with fun activities and educational games is an important part of being a nanny! Of course none of this is possible without being a safe, reliable, honest & kind nanny to begin with so that is the foundation for all of the above!
My experience with special needs children...
I have worked with children who have autism spectrum disorders, hearing impairments and learning disabilities.
The most important part about being a nanny...
A special moment I have with the children I nannied for was when I was asked to watch the girls overnight. It was one of the first times this was requested of me. We watched a movie, danced, and created a healthy dinner together! Afterwards, we cleaned the house extra special for their parents and made signs to welcome the parents back home after a stressful trip they had to make. The parents seemed to love it and the girls felt so happy to provide their parents with this special homecoming.
