More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I was a babysitter for a family with 2 children for 3 years. I also helped my aunt babysitting her daughter for about 3 years. I have also volunteered in my church to assist with the children classes and I have been a teacher there for about 4 years.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy engaging in creative and educational activities with children, such as arts and crafts, storytelling, and outdoor games. These activities not only entertain but also help children learn, express themselves, and build important social and cognitive skills.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is creating a safe, nurturing, and trusting environment where children feel loved, supported, and encouraged to grow. It’s also essential to build strong communication with the family to ensure consistency and meet the child’s individual needs.

My experience with special needs children...

My aunt’s daughter is special needs, I assisted my aunt on a daily basis with her as well as overnight help!

The most important part about being a nanny...

One funny moment was when I was taking care of siblings, a boy and a girl. The boy randomly asked me “do you really like your boyfriend? what if you marry me instead” before I could even get a word in the sister jumps in quickly “are you crazy you can’t marry her” I immediately thought she would say it was because I was their nanny, she goes on to say “she is way out of your league and plus she’s my best friend you can’t marry my best friend.” I definitely have many other stories about them but this one left me speechless.
