Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Others have told me that I have an innate gift that has them calling me "Maria Poppins" as a term of endearment.
I take joy in supporting infants gross/motor skills, teaching them to walk and talk and play. I love taking the older children to local libraries, Orlando Science Center, Museums, local story times, play groups and lessons.
Traveling with children is such a great way to teach them with first hand experiences.

The most important part about being a nanny...
Safety first then fun.
Children need to feel secure, understood, and emotionally supported, which requires high emotional intelligence (EQ). Parents, meanwhile, need absolute confidence that their children are safe and well-cared for in their absence.
It is important for me to respond to children's feelings without judgment, and provide parents with thorough, transparent updates on daily routines.

My favorite Nanny moments are rocking Infants to sleep, singing them songs, reading them books. Educating them by taking them to the Orlando Science Center, Sea World, Epcot, Libraries and Museums when they are older. I love traveling with children and introducing them to new adventures where they can learn first hand.
