More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I have provided child care for other families. I have an 18 month-year-old nephew that I spend a lot of time with.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I believe that a blend of indoor and outdoor activities are important. I think that children need to be active and moving but also need to know how to spend time quietly. I think it is important to engage with children and interact with them and that they also have the pill ability to entertain themselves. I like to be involved in all sorts of activities to create diversity in children’s experiences.
The most important part about being a nanny...
I believe a nanny’s job is to provide consistent, nurturing, predictable care to the families.. I know that I would need to be flexible to the families values, routine, and needs for their children. I like to be able to support the whole family and assist in ways that replicates normalcy and stability for the children. I also believe that being reliable as important for the family.
My experience with special needs children...
I do not have a lot of experience in this area however am willing to learn. I do have some experience with children with ADHD.
The most important part about being a nanny...
I love memories of when I have worked with the child and I could see that they understood a word and were able to repeat it. It is fun to watch their face light up and them to continue to say the word because they have the understanding.

Full-Time Nanny Available in Waukee, IA: Awal A.
Hello, I am Awal Ajak
I was born in Sudan in 1998 and moved to the states In 2006 due to the war. I have also lived in Egypt for 5 years before moving. Coming to the state was a blessing from God. My family is the most important thing ever, specially my 3 little sisters and 3 little boy cousins. So, making them happy and comfortable is what I live for. I have worked with children all my life, from babysitting my siblings at a young age to working in daycares and volunteering. Children are truly a blessing.
I had the opportunity to play high school basketball and get recruited by big schools. I played at the University of Missouri- Kansas City and got a chance to make it to the NCAA tournament. Basketball has played a big part in my life. I graduated with a political science degree and currently pursuing my Masters in Public Administration.
