A little bit about me

I have always loved working with kids. I grew up with younger twin siblings that I constantly watched over. In my teenage years I did small babysitting jobs every now and then. In 2019 I started working at the People's Institute daycare center in downtown Northampton. On weekdays I would pick the kids up from school and bring them to the daycare where we did tons of fun activities such as; arts and crafts, reading, swimming, board games, sports, and occasionally watch movies! I had such a positive experience and enjoyed every second I spent with the kids. The job taught me countless responsibility and leadership skills. Other tasks I had to complete were, preparing meals and snacks, giving medical attention to kids, and conflict resolution. I was so inspired by my love of working with children that I decided to make a career out of it and I will be majoring in Secondary Education.

More About Me

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

I worked at People's Institute Daycare in Northampton for almost two years until covid became more serious. My most recent babysitting experience was with a family with 3 children aged 6, 4, and 4 months old. Working with an infant was a different experience, it taught me more about caring for children of multiple ages at once.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I am student athlete and played 3 sports during my time in high school, I like to stay pretty active and enjoy any types of outdoor activities. I love board/card games as reading.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Having a good relationship with the children so they feel safe with me and comfortable around me. This rule applies to the parents and family as well as I know trusting someone with your children can be a very difficult thing to do.

My experience with special needs children...

During my time working at a day care we had many children that required special attention. I was also a member of the Best Buddies club in high school, a club based around doing activities with students and children with special needs.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moment would have to be when I left my kids for a week to go on vacation and when I returned they all sprinted over screaming "Emily is back!"
