More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
Teachers assistant at the Bay Area Children’s Discovery Museum, naturalist for wilderness outdoor school, camp guide/counselor for a diverse array of camps including underprivileged and at-risk youth programming, summer day camps, and nature sleep away camps, and have tutored for various ages through education outreach programs. Involved with the Girl Scouts program as both a volunteer and paid staff.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I most enjoy engaging in the activities that the children I am caring for are most excited for! In addition: arts and crafts, exploring as much as possible in nature or at a park (4-leaf clover hunting has been my latest hobby! but also observing plants, trees, the sky, animals while also getting to play around), playing make-pretend and seeing to what far away lands and places our imaginations can take us, and engaging in educational activities ranging from interactive skills learning to reading/acting out books to making games out of chores and homework. I also enjoy sports activities (Eventhough I may not be the best at them!) as I grew up heavily involved in soccer, softball, and dance/cheer… as I’ve gotten older have discovered I truly just enjoy trying any new sport so have been dipping my toes in everything from extreme sports including skateboarding and snowboarding to ball sports ranging from tennis and volleyball.
The most important part about being a nanny...
Providing a safe, supportive, and enriching environment in order to hold space for children so that they may feel empowered and free to discover their "best selves", while growing and learning through engaging, and grounding activities
My experience with special needs children...
Studied adaptive youth recreation leisure programming and administration in college and completed 100+ hours of volunteer work in ADA youth parks + rec. Have experience tutoring and caring for children with special needs including those on the autism spectrum and children with learning disabilities. I additionally have experience managing behavioral needs and accommodations.
The most important part about being a nanny...
