Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I like to focus on movement, sensory play, and interaction, starting with tummy time, singing, and mirror play for infants, progressing to dancing, exploring textures (like water tables), outdoor walks, simple gardening, and active games like catch or hide-and-seek or activities children would like to explore as they grow, always incorporating family movement for overall well-being.
The most important part about being a nanny...
A combination of genuine love for children, unwavering reliability, and prioritizing their safety, building a strong, trusting bond is the foundation, enabling you to provide nurturing care, engage in developmental activities, and communicate effectively with parents, ensuring children feel secure and thrive.
My experience with special needs children...
Development and behavioral work with sensory awareness. Cooking, cleaning, bathing and dressing. Outdoor activities.
Really no different the activities I do with children. Both equally rewarding in watching the connections and growth.

The most important part about being a nanny...
Every moment you see growth in all areas and the smiles that come with it. Watching children become thinkers. Being able to understand emotions and guiding them through them.
Listening and observing is so important.
