A little bit about me

Hi my name is Gigi Sonnier! I am 20 years old and am a rising junior at Columbia College Chicago studying film. I am currently taking time off from school in order to save money. I have tons of experience with child care. I have been babysitting since I was 14 for girls and boys of all ages, for the past three summers I have worked as a counselor at an overnight summer camp where I am responsible for 12 girls at a time, and for two years in high school I taught an art class to 3-6 year old girls. I am great at planning activities for kids and keeping them entertained. I love being fun and silly with kids which is a bug reason why my jobs tend to gravitate towards childcare. I am also CPR certified and first aid certified. I am a licensed driver with a clean record. I can provide recommendations if needed.

More About Me

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

Overnight camp counselor, art class teacher

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love doing crafts with kids, I love going to the park and playing games, I love watching movies with kids, I love writing stories with kids

The most important part about being a nanny...

In my opinion, a good nanny is patient, kind, and passionate. Kids can be very difficult so an open mind and patience is so crucial as well as persistence and kindness. A nanny without these qualities will have a much harder time earning the trust and respect of a child they are caring for.
