The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moments as a childcare provider, is seeing children's development and learning firsthand as they grow and flourish in my care. I love seeing things from their eyes, from their perspective. In many families, parents do rely on child care providers, so they to can work and it is a great privilege to play a role in their life during those vital first five years. Since working with children, they have encouraged me to use my imagination, and different ways to get creative.
