More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I was a preschool lead teacher at Kindercare as well as floating where I was needed. I have a 5-year-old and a 6 month old nephew I help take care of. I also currently work as a part time coach for children at different daycares and a middle school after school program.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
I love introducing children to sports and physical activity. With infants and younger toddlers. just rolling a ball with them is helpful for their gross motor skills to develop. As they get older, adding in throwing/kicking/hitting balls is helpful for hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. Children should look forward to running and playing outside, and keeping the screen time limited is a large part of my goal as a nanny and aunt. Reading with kids is also fun. My passion for reading started with my mom reading me stories ever since infancy, and I find it important to have those skills ahead of the game (although there is no shame in not picking it up fast. Every child is different and should be treated as such).
The most important part about being a nanny...
Watching a child have 10 bad days and 1 good day is the most fulfilling moment as a caretaker.
The most important part about being a nanny...
I have not nannied before, but watching children develop personalities is my favorite part about working with children. As they grow, they get opinions and wills of their own. It makes working with them more difficult in a sense that they question you. but it's important to answer to their questions. Reasoning and compromising with children is very important, especially for a "problem child". I see those kids as more of people who are opposing the norm, and it is very normal to do so. Helping these kids with whatever issue they're having and learning to understand them is very important. Every child deserves an equal chance and an equal outcome.

Part-Time Nanny Available in Westfield, IN: Leah W.
I have loved working with kids for as long as I can remember, starting my very first babysitting job at age 13. Since then, I have cared for children of every age, from infants through teens.
I currently work full-time but am looking for something different and closer to home. I am a mom of 3 teens who are now fairly self-sufficient during the weekdays and afternoons!
Safety and fun are my top priorities and are something I take seriously and genuinely enjoy staying sharp on. I'm CPR certified, lifeguard certified, and have been teaching swim lessons for over 13 years. These experiences have taught me how to truly connect and inspire children of all ages, and teaching remains my truest passion.
I often tell people that I have learned everything important I know about life from teaching swim lessons and look forward to carrying this passion into my next job!

Babysitter Available in Westfield, IN: Holly J.
I am older and have my own child which helps bring perspective on two important areas. First, I don't take for granted the fact that you are entrusting your child's care to me therefore, I won't have my head in my phone all the time. And second, this job is important to me so helping your child learn and grow is an essential part of meeting milestones and contributing to them being a happy, healthy child.
